 <description>&lt;p style=&quot;padding: 5px; float: right;&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.nextbillion.net/files/images/PopTech.img_assist_custom.gif&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; title=&quot;&quot;  class=&quot;image img_assist_custom&quot; width=&quot;150&quot; height=&quot;150&quot; /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;Last night, I wrote a &lt;a href=&quot;/blogs/2007/10/17/pop-tech-a-quiet-town-comes-alive&quot;&gt;post about Camden, Maine&lt;/a&gt; - where I am attending Pop!Tech 2007.  At the very end, I mentioned that I was heading out to meet up with Nathan Eagle, a MIT entrepreneur-engineer who runs the &lt;a href=&quot;http://eprom.mit.edu/&quot;&gt;Entrepreneurial Programming and Research on Mobiles&lt;/a&gt; project.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Well, I did run into Nathan, but he was deep in conversation with NextBillion ally &lt;a href=&quot;http://amglobal.blogspot.com/&quot;&gt;Andrew Mack&lt;/a&gt; at the time.  In an effort to not re-invent the wheel, I told Nathan that NextBillion would interview him another time, and that - for the time being - I would just link back to Andrew&amp;#39;s post.  So here it is:&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://amglobal.blogspot.com/2007/10/give-me-cell-phone-or-give-me-death.html&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Give Me a Cell Phone, or Give Me Death!  Does Tomorrow Belong to the C-Citizen?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Thanks to Andrew for the good work.  As for me, I interviewed Kiva&amp;#39;s &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.kiva.org/about/advisors/&quot;&gt;Jessica Flannery&lt;/a&gt; this afternoon, and will write that up in addition to my other blogging during the next few days.  If there are certain people or &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.poptech.org/speakers2007/&quot;&gt;speakers&lt;/a&gt; you would like me to seek out, drop a comment and I&amp;#39;ll do my best. &lt;br class=&quot;clear&quot; /&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.nextbillion.net/blogs/2007/10/18/pop-tech-on-cell-phones-entrepreneurship-and-african-governance&quot;&gt;read more&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>
