New, innovative technologies come down the pike every year, and plenty get lots of press. But which technologies will move beyond fad to cause major, disruptive change? Which innovations will open up new markets, allow your company to be more efficient or change the way you communicate with your clients and employees?
As the New York Time's tech reviewer, best-selling author of the Missing Manual series, and CNBC's "Power Lunch" tech commentator, David Pogue holds a front-row seat for observing the blazing-fast torrent of new inventions. In his entertaining and insightful presentation, Pogue will display, discuss and demonstrate the technological advances — the booming PDA market, mobile computing, Web 2.0, and more — that will have the most impact on society in the coming years.
A book signing will follow, featuring Pogue's The World According to Twitter and his soon-to-be-released Mac OS X: The Missing Manual, Snow Leopard Edition, which may be purchased at the luncheon.
