UPDATE: Internet Evolution Launches IE Radio with craigslist's Founder Craig Newmark

B2B social networking site's new programming combines streaming audio and live chat with some of the brightest minds of the Web 2.0 era

NEW YORK, Aug. 12 /PRNewswire/ -- Internet Evolution has unveiled the lineup for its new IE Radio program, kicking off Thursday, Aug. 13, at 4 p.m. ET with craigslist founder Craig Newmark. Future IE Radio guests in subsequent weeks include venture capitalist Esther Dyson; political consultant Joe Trippi; author Andrew Keen; blogger Cory Doctorow; and Ford's social networking director Scott Monty.

"We're excited to add live audio streaming to our content.
