<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default">How time flies! A quarter of a century since the Internet Society was founded, just as the network emerged from it's NSF chrysalis to wider world. But plenty of water under the bridge. And who knows where we might end up in the next quarter century. Well, ISOC has taken a shot at figuring that out, and it's findings will be in the Global Report mentioned below, which, along with the 4th Internet Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony, will be the main features of InterCommunity 2017. This year in NYC we are doing ICOMM in style, with a lunch at the Cornell Club! Hope you can find time, and funds, to join us. <br></div><div><div class="gmail_quote"><br><u></u><div class="gmail-m_-2292459683576042803subscription-body-tag"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#DDDDDD" style="width:766px;background:rgb(221,221,221)"><tbody><tr><td><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" align="center" class="gmail-m_-2292459683576042803subscribe-body" style="width:746px;padding:10px"><tbody><tr><td><div style="direction:ltr;max-width:600px;margin:0px auto;overflow:hidden"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" bgcolor="#ffffff" class="gmail-m_-2292459683576042803subscribe-wrapper" style="width:600px;background-color:rgb(255,255,255);max-width:1024px;min-width:320px;margin:0px auto"><tbody><tr><td><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" height="8" class="gmail-m_-2292459683576042803subscribe-header-wrap" style="width:600px;background-image:url("https://s0.wp.com/i/emails/stripes.gif");background-repeat:repeat-x;background-color:rgb(67,164,208);height:8px"><tbody><tr><td></td></tr></tbody></table><br><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="20" bgcolor="#ffffff" style="width:600px"><tbody><tr><td><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="width:560px"><tbody><tr><td valign="top" class="gmail-m_-2292459683576042803the-post"><table border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" style="width:560px"><tbody></tbody></table><div class="gmail-m_-2292459683576042803post-content" style="direction:ltr;margin-top:1em;max-width:560px"><h2 style="margin:0.4em 0px 0.3em;font-size:1.8em"><a href="http://bit.ly/2gtUeVx" rel="noopener" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(37,133,178)"><img border="0" class="gmail-m_-2292459683576042803wp-image-9373" src="http://isoc-ny.org/p2/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/icomm-NYC2017_480x270.png" alt="InterCommunity 2017 NYC Node" width="319" height="179" style="margin-bottom: 12px; clear: both; float: right; margin-left: 1em; padding: 4px; border: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin-right: 0px;"></a>The Internet Society is <a href="https://www.internetsociety.org/25th/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(37,133,178)">25 years old</a>, and we are looking at <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/thenext25?f=tweets&vertical=default&lang=en" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(37,133,178)">#thenext25</a>.</h2><h2 style="margin:0.4em 0px 0.3em;font-size:1.8em">Join us at the Cornell Club on on September 19 to celebrate, and participate in a ISOC's annual global meetup, <strong><a href="https://www.internetsociety.org/intercommunity/2017" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" target="_blank" style="color:rgb(37,133,178)">InterCommunity 2017</a>.</strong></h2><h2 style="margin:0.4em 0px 0.3em;font-size:1.8em"><strong>New York is North America's only Interactive Node and we're planning a very special event!</strong></h2><p style="direction:ltr;font-size:14px;line-height:1.4em;color:rgb(68,68,68);font-family:"Helvetica Neue",Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif;margin:0px 0px 1em"><strong>InterCommunity is an annual event where the Internet Society's 110+ chapters and 80k+ members participate in a global meetup, as regional nodes take it in turns to present local news, and discuss global issues.
