The Davos World Economic Forum has a blog.

It even uses Sitemeter!

They're not too happy with U.S. leaders, though:

The absence of major US leaders (Bush, Cheney, Powell, anyone!) from the WEF this year is glaring.

In all honesty, if most Americans wanted its leaders to spend a lot of time at world summits and conferences, wouldn't John Kerry have been elected?

CLARIFICATION: The blog notes that views posted there "do not necessarily reflect those of the Forum." But it's the official forum blog. So go figure.

I have been watching some of the webcasts of the World Economic Forum and they have been very informative. I personally liked the brief webcast on "Does Business Have a Noble Value?". I like the opening comments by Stephen Roach of Morgan Stanley. I didn't really like what he had to say, as I agreed with his analysis of the United States, but that is reality. Interesting also was the survey as to would today's world leaders take responsibility for making tough choices on these issues. 43% said low confidence, 18% said very low confidence. 34% moderate confidence. 4% high confidence. 1% very confident.

Anyway, I encourage you guys to view the webcasts if you get a chance.
