Original Popsockets were made by accident, by a philosophy professor named David Barnett. He just wanted to make his earbuds stop tangling, but he came up with something else instead. He realized the product had potential, so he worked on it for three years after that. The Popsocket was born. This is where we bring a twist. We realized that the accessory had something missing. It wasn't quite as fun as it could be, which is where we insert the idea of a Bluetooth speaker, quite literally.
