Imogen Heap @ PopTech 2008

The month of October brought us Thanksgiving, Halloween, and Pop!Tech .  Late every October 500+ thinkers from the science, technology, business, design, education, government, arts and culture fields come together for a three day conference in Camden, Maine. Pop!Tech isn't your everyday stuffy business meeting, guests are treated to a relaxed and informal atmosphere where there is no hierarchy of position; Activists beside Capitalists, educators beside students. Over the three days Pop!Tech examines the major trends shaping the future, analyzes the social impacts of new technology, and looks for new approaches to addressing the worlds most significant challenges.
