Keith Schacht & Zach Kaplan: Products (and toys) from the future
The Inventables guys, Zach Kaplan and Keith Schacht, demo some amazing new materials and how we might use them. Look for squishy magnets, odor-detecting ink, "dry" liquid and a very surprising 10-foot pole.
Keith Schacht co-founded Inventables, a hothouse for innovation. More recently he's brought us the JobCoin listings board, the Freshwater Venture entrepreneur map, and Facebook's Grow-a-Gift.

Schacht has recently left Inventables to start a few new ventures, including the JobCoin listings service and Facebook's Grow-a-Gift.
