Enter SyFy’s House of Imagination and Alcatel-Lucent’s LTE world – rich, frictionless space for magical personal experiences.  Car as platform, toaster […]


Started the day roaming the halls with social media gurus Jeff Pulver and Dave Taylor, stopped into P2P long enough for muffin and to hear about Playfirst, Activision’s involving with using P2P for on demand gaming, then dropped in on Jeff and Dave at Social Media Jungle for inspirational tweets: Pulver – If I can […]


Since this was my first time covering CES, I decided to fly in early to check out the press events with the intention to miss the crowds. Not so flying out of SFO. SWA had a dozen flights to Vegas, all sold out. Mixing it up at the airport was Popbox, Dolby, Wired and others. […]

At first glance, it seems very omninous, doesn’t it.  Adobe not at Macworld, not at Sundance.  But was Adobe even missed at Macworld?  Although Macworld won’t be releasing numbers for two more months, the feeling was that attendance was off from the 48,000 attendees and 479 exhibitors in 2008. The aisles were walkable.  There were […]
