Slingbox Wins!
Posted Jan. 9, 2007

For outstanding achievement in advanced media tech for the creation of nontraditional programs or platforms (wow--that is a mouthful). Simply put, Slingbox won because it rocks the consumer's world.

At The Emmy Awards
Posted Jan 9, 2007

A huge turn-out!! So far Emmys for RCA-TTE, DirecTV, Microsoft, Adobe, Real Networks, and Apple. Much fun to be had at the 58th Annual Technology and Engineering Awards live from The Venetian in Las Vegas. I am up in a bit--will let you know who wins in my category.

A widget that lets you upload video to your blog or MySpace page from your cell phone that is carrier-independent. They also claim to be able to put this up through a set top box. Oh, and did I mention you can brand it?! Coolest thing I have seen yet. www.juicecaster.com

And I want to go home. Some of the snappier things I have seen: Roots branded protective gear; 1023 plasma at Samsung (because every house should have one); more accessories for everything from the phone to the car to the home than you can shake a stick at. And ASIMO is back again this year.

Hitting the pavement soon. A sneak peek yesterday at the convention center only reinforced the belief I had that this year is going to be bigger than last. Keynote from BG last night--IPTV and Xbox. Uh huh.
More in a bit.
