PM enjoys chinwag with Steve Jobs. The prime minister said: "I'm here today in listening mode, as long as you treat me as ignorant." He said he was interested in how the Silicon Valley culture fosters entrepreneurism. "We're trying in our way in Britain to make sure the UK is a dynamic, innovative country," Blair told his lunchtime gathering of technology leaders, which also included representatives from Intel rival AMD, Adobe and Sun. The technologists recommended Blair and other politicians keep a blog. The notoriously secret Jobs doesn't blog, at least publicly." [Top Topic]
