Pop!Tech is happening today, Friday and Saturday in Camden, Maine. It's kind of like TED only a little more out of the box and eclectic--"world changing people, projects, and ideas." The theme this year is "Brilliant Accidents, Necessary Failures, and Improbable Breakthroughs" which I'm sure we've all experienced. They're actually webcasting most of the conference
here -- plan your viewing based on the
schedule and check out the full roster of speakers
here.
Yesterday I watched a few of the presentations, the highlights being
Reggie Watts' creative and hilarious 'disinformationist' improvisations (see the
videos) and
Alan Rabinowitz's moving story of overcoming stuttering and standing up for the rights of tigers and leopards throughout the world. I can't wait for today's lineup... keep an eye on the website for
archived presentations.
