David Pogue at PETE&C08

Well its that time of year again. Time to get crammed into tiny little rooms with hundreds of fellow geeks and geekettes like sardines in the can. Time to feel the palpable love for technology. Time for the most massive Pennsylvania Educational Technology Expo and Conference ever. Wow there’s a lot of people here.

Today started with a great, relaxing and funny keynote from David Pogue who pontificated on the comglomeration of gadgets and gizmos

My first break-out session was also presented by David Pogue, called something like David’s Gadget Funhouse. A walk through a variety of the latest and greatest in geek toys.
