Los Angeles, CA (October 16, 2008) - DomainSponsor™, the domain monetization division of Oversee.net, announced today that Steve Wozniak will be the keynote speaker at the third annual DOMAINfest™ Global event scheduled for January 28-30, 2009 in Hollywood, Calif. The Apple Computer, Inc. co-founder and Silicon Valley icon is one of the most influential and colorful innovators in technology history, and is credited with helping shape the personal computer industry with his Apple designs.

For his achievements at Apple Computer, Inc. in 1985, President Reagan awarded Wozniak the National Medal of Technology, the highest honor bestowed on America's leading innovators. In 2000, Wozniak was inducted into the Inventors Hall of Fame and was awarded the prestigious Heinz Award for Technology, The Economy and Employment.

In recent years, Wozniak has been involved with other Apple alumni in developing a number of telecommunications and technology companies.  He also is a founder of the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which confronts cutting-edge issues defending free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights today. In 2006, Wozniak (also known as “The Woz”) published his autobiography, iWoz: From Computer Geek to Cult Icon.
