So far, we have 56 amazing Characters speaking and taking part in the #140Conf Boston which takes place on September 14, 2010.
Driving 8 days through 11 States through the Midwest during the #140Conf Road Trip means lots of road time and great music.
From his newly released "This Way Up" album, Brian Ray's "I Found You," is the official song of the #140Conf Roadtrip. As of this posting, Brian is wrapping up an extensive European and U.S. tour as a member of Paul McCartney's band.
Cruising in a Buick Enclave with and capturing #140KodakMoments (GM/Buick & Kodak are among our sponsors) along the way, I hope that the words and vibe of "I Found You," will be the catalyst for finding new voices, sharing great stories of social change, and connecting with new communities along the way.

The Buick brand is on the road and made it's way to San Antonio last night. I had the chance to connect with GM / Buick PR Representative Extraordinaire, Michelle Bunker, (twitter link) who's also part of the team helping to bring the #140Conf to Detroit on October 20.
