WIRED NextFest: day 2

So I went back in to the city today, primarily to go to a presentation called “Using Technology to Inspire Leadership and Action”. Ok, maybe they could have used technology to inspire a better title, but I actually wanted to go to it.
First, however, I had an extra hour and a half to wander some […]
