At this year’s AT&T Developer Summit and Hackathon, attendees had the opportunity to attend a Futurecast featuring tech evangelist Robert Scoble. The lively conversation covered a bevy of topics including why developers should be excited about the future beyond the mobile era. 

Why do some technologies get adopted while others don’t? With the inundation of connected products and cloud services, how do we embrace the everyday user to leverage them to bring the rest of the world along?
