Guest : Erick Schonfeld, editor-at-large of Business 2.0 magazine
Aired : Saturday June 30th, 2007

Is Steve Job the most influential person in business technology? Where do the Google Guys rank? Does Bill Gates matter anymore? How about eBay's Meg Whitman? And is Arianna Huffington really more important than Salesforce.com CEO Marc Benioff?  Join us as we go over Business 2.0's 50 Most Influential People in business technology with Erick Schonfeld, Business 2.0's editor-at-large. Plus we get the lowdown on www.JumpUp.com, Intuit's social networking site for entrepreneurs, from JumpUp's marketing leader Kira Wampler.  Filling in for Michael Thomas in the co-host's chair this week is Lynn Do, president of Renovo Data.
