Breakout Beta Session at Barnes & Noble - Union Square

When workers of the world throw off the shackles of their fixed workplaces and liberate themselves from their cubicles, how will they find each other in the creativity-inspiring public spaces of the world's cities? At this session, we'll take the wrapper off an alpha version of the Breakout Operating System, a social wep app that's part Meetup, part social media aggregator, and part networking site for coworkers. Help us turn this amazing tool into something that can be used around the world to liberate people from the dull conference rooms and confining cubicles and experience work in the great outdoors.
