Steve Hamm of Business Week narrows the National CTO finalists down to two today. And, based on what we currently understand the job description to be, both would be excellent picks.
They are Padmasree Warrior, the chief technology officer of Silicon Valley networking giant Cisco Systems (CSCO), and Vivek Kundra, who holds the same title in the government of Washington, D.C., the sources say.
The two candidates offer President-elect Obama a clear choice of skills. Warrior, who previously was CTO at Motorola (MOT), represents hard-core technology expertise. Kundra, who was named to the D.C. post in 2007, has held similar government positions in the past and has a reputation for using technology to make government more open and inclusive. Neither the Obama transition team nor the two executives would comment on their potential selection by Obama.
The President-elect is expected to announce his pick for CTO in a matter of days. One of the sources says the selection is being held up because it's not yet clear how the person selected as CTO will interact with the government's chief information officer, a position now held by Karen Evans, and with the new cyber-security czar, another position that has not yet been filed.
Kundra has been on the tip of most lips since the Post ran a flattering profile on him earlier in the month.
One caveat that Hamm doesn't raise: There is some talk that the Obama team might yet pick someone with more of an "academic" background (as opposed to business management). Ed Felten of Princeton has been on numerous short lists and would fall under this category.
And, in other appointment rumor news, former Symantec CEO John Thompson has moved from CTO speculation to Commerce Secretary talk. That would be a great spot for him.

Matt can not really say anntihyg to this. I met Vivek at PdF09 this year and he was an engaging, intelligent person. As for an $18M website that is surprising which has me wondering where the costs come from. But I have heard many times how government always pays a higher rate for all services which I never fully understood.When Vivek and I spoke he was looking for people who could take project management skills and apply them to government while keeping true to cost issues and the original remit. The challenge about DC is there is a very tight network of people who support each other.When I did the Kerry Campaign, the first issue I addressed was the incredible cost of internet bandwidth we were paying to Akamai at the time. In 2003, they were charging us $1600/M with overage after 3M. Compared to a commercial rate of $400 (or so) / M this was outrageous. I found out later, after negotiating them to a $360/M deal for the campaign, that the reason for the price differential was that it was through the government sales office which has different expectations on performance (e.g. better than 5-nines performance). While I appreciate the concept, it is not what government always needs. There is such a thing as a tradeoff in business and engineering and I know there is in government.As for Vivek I know nothing gets really rolling at least for a year. Give the man the time to breathe. His background is one thing his performance as the CIO of DC is another.

that the global ecnomoy imposes a tax on young people: They must learn English.At universities that welcome foreign students (most US universities), professors are required to further the globalization of young people. We refine their English, teach them universal views of right and wrong (usually relating to plagiarism), and teach them professional communication. My kids learn these things in high school, but many of my graduate students do not. My students are sometimes shocked when I make a fuss over cheating, and some are insulted and offended that I punish them for cheating, despite repeated warnings. A strange collision indeed!
