(InfoWorld) - An advocacy group representing several tech vendor CEOs has been meeting with U.S. presidential candidates and getting a positive reception to the policies it's pushing, the group's executive director said. The Technology CEO Council, whose members include the chief executives of Intel, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, and Dell, has met with several presidential candidates in recent months, said Bruce Mehlman, executive director of the group. Mehlman declined to name the candidates the CEOs have met with, saying the group is better served at the moment by not naming names. "The meetings have been productive," Mehlman said. "There's been a lot of ... mutual recognition of the importance of innovation, the importance of remaining globally connected." The group wants to reach out early in an "intense political season," Mehlman said Thursday. The group is trying to present a "vision on how some of the big, broad, important trends should be thought about and talked about," he said. The U.S. presidential election is in November 2008. This week, the council released a report, called "A Great Nation," calling for U.S. lawmakers to focus on free trade and innovation. "A great nation does not fear overseas competition," the report says. "A great nation prepares its workers and companies to successfully compete in a global market." The report is an effort to get the council's views out about high-skilled immigration and free trade, Mehlman said. While the group has called for more H-1B skilled worker visas to be made available for U.S. companies to use, other groups, including some tech worker groups, have opposed raising the H-1B cap from the current 65,000, plus another 20,000 for students, each year. Commentators like CNN's Lou Dobbs have also opposed an immigration reform bill that would include a higher H-1B cap. "A lot of this is in the spirit of our recognition that a lot more Americans watch Lou Dobbs than read [classic free-market economist] Adam Smith," Mehlman said. "It takes real political courage to stand up for open markets these days." While Mehlman is upbeat about the group's meetings with candidates, he said he's still frustrated by the lack of action on the group's agenda. In April, the group releasedÂ its list of "seven for '07" legislative priorities, including immigration reform and a patent system overhaul, and the U.S. Congress has not passed any of the seven items. Even relatively uncontroversial measures like more funding for research at U.S. government agencies and a health IT bill have so far gone nowhere this year. "It is encouraging to see politicians from both parties ... saying so many of the right things and pushing for many of the right things," Mehlman said. "America doesn't get more competitive policies from speeches -- we get them from legislation. The proof is in the passage."

(InfoWorld) - The former engineering major in me got a nice surprise Tuesday afternoon when Intel's Gordon Moore (that's right, the guy behind The Law) spoke at the Intel Developer Forum Tuesday. Tech Nation's Moira Gunn hosted an hour-long conversation with Moore, and while I'm not usually one to go all weak-kneed at the sight of tech-industry giants, I have to admit that the father of Moore's Law got me going. Moore shared his thoughts on more than 40 years in the semiconductor industry and really helped bring into focus exactly how far we've come. The entire conversation will be available as a webcast shortly, but here are a few of my favorite tidbits: * On what the world would look like today if the integrated circuits Moore helped develop hadn't taken off, and computers were still built from individual transistors and components: There was an early projection by one of the few companies making transistors that eventually they could get the cost of a transistor down to 68 cents. Well, the IC did take off, and "today you buy them for 10 picobucks!" * Intel wasn't close to the first choice as a name for the company. It was initially called Moore-Noyce Electronics and a nice punny little name they used to initially incorporate the firm, but they ran through five or six candidates for a real name before they got Intel cleared as a trademark. Apparently it used to be standard procedure to clear such names in New York and California and assume that that got you the rest of the U.S. Of course, Moore said, "Then we ended up having to buy 'Intel' from a hotel company in the Midwest." Score one for the flyover states. * On innovation in general: "The most exciting things are usually in the interfaces, and there's lots of exciting stuff going on [now] in the interface between computers and biology." * Finally, what was Moore excited about for the next decades of technology? "We're going to get to the point where computers have really good language recognition ... where you interact with your computer the way you interact with your colleagues." Gordon, I can't wait.
