The 2009 Design, Innovate, Communicate, Entertain Summit has updated its list of speakers, and right at the top of the precariously teetering pile is Valve co-founder and president Gabe Newell.
Newell will be on hand at the 2009 D.I.C.E. Summit to deliver a keynote address, which I presume will have something to do with Valve, Steam, or some combination thereof. The key thing to remember here is that Gabe isnāt one to mince words, and his mouth is big enough for both of his feet, as well as the feet of several innocent passersby. Should be a hoot!
