We discuss some of the recent work on discrete conformal geometry of polyhedral surfaces. The relationship among discrete conformal geometry, the work of Thurston and Alexandrov on convex surfaces in hyperbolic 3-space, and the Koebe circle domain conjecture will be addressed. We also show that the discrete uniformization maps converge to the conformal maps. This is a joint work with D. Gu, J. Sun, and T. Wu.
