PopTech 2007 Photos

I have officially uploaded the PopTech 2007 photo album. Check it out for close-ups of speakers, performers and organizers.  Below are a few fun ones I extracted for quick viewing.

John Sculley and Bob Metcalfe who were two of the early founders of the event. Like the rest of us, they were standing in the rain outside the tent that housed buckets of ice cream, an annual PopTech tradition...

John Maeda, world-renowned graphic designer and artist at MIT (also in the rain :-)

John Legend, his passion through his fingers and voice moved me into another galaxy

The Brooklyn Marching Band took over the last session, bringing a few of us into the aisles to boogie down (including yours truly)
