BUG <3 Boston
Tuesday, after I spoke at the Mass Customization and Personalization conference in the Stata Building at MIT, we hosted our BUG+Boston event and had a great time. It’s no surprise that when you throw a party in a town with so many great schools you get a lot of really smart people. I had some terrific conversations. Also got a lot of great input and feedback on BUG and what we’re up to. Thanks to everyone for coming. We’ve posted a bunch of pictures here. And thanks to all the bloggers who covered it! Here are a few links:

We also put up on our website the latest renderings of what the BUG will actually look like. We’ve gotten interesting feedback! Some like the design, some aren’t so sure, which I think is great. To be clear, it’s not an iPhone nor a Curve. It has it’s own personality. It’s more "Jack Bauer" than "Giorgio Armani"
