WIRED NextFest  is coming to NYC - a mini World Fair that sounds like it’s a must see event.

"WIRED’s vision of a new world’s fair, WIRED NextFest is a four-day festival of innovative products and technologies that are transforming our world. Patterned on the great World’s Fairs of the past, this year’s NextFest in New York features more than 130 interactive exhibits from leading scientists and researchers around the world. Experience the future of exploration, entertainment, transportation, health, communication, design, security, and green living. Visitors of all ages are welcome."

I’ll take my 13 year old son for sure on one of the days.
