CES is celebrating its 40th anniversary and the enthusiasm and energy are at its greatest levels ever. Why? Because for a 40 year old show, CES is still making headlines – and I’m not just talking about the latest in electronics or gadgets either. This year, CES recognized bloggers as legitimate media. Finally…a huge validation for citizen media.
I’ve been quiet this week, not because of the lack of topics to discuss, but mostly buried in preparations for about 16 product launches at CES. Watch the FW page for all of the launch news…we created a special pipeline just to get everything out there.
In all of my years launching companies and new tech at this show, 2007 is by far the grandest yet. And since I’m a sucker for cool gadgets, I’m fully prepared to geek-out out at the show, while trying to fill the pipeline for my monthly tech column in Affluent Magazine as well as the blog.
