CES: The Highs and Lows

I'm still not 100% after CES. It's amazing what a week of three-hour-a-night sleep does to your body. Plus, we met up with John Welch and his fiance on Saturday. Yes, that John Welch. The one who is always giving me heck in my comments. Turns out he's a real sweetheart. Seriously. Didn't call me a name in four hours we spent together on Saturday and he even wrote a really nice post about it. Before I met John I was really nervous. He was totally different than I expected him to be. Wonderful guy. Hope to do something fun at next year's MacWorld, which starts on January 14th. Speaking of January 14th, Happy Birthday to my son! Yesterday was his birthday. Thanks to Apple, Inc., for getting his computer back to him. He was SO happy yesterday. What did he want for his birthday present? That's right. He just wanted to hang out in the Apple store in Palo Alto. I'm so proud! He's a teenager now and there's so many worse things he could be getting into (drugs, or worse) that, while I give him heck for being a fan boy, I am so relieved. It was a great end to a week that saw PodTech really take off with its BlogHaus, which, was a runaway success. Technology Evangelist said a blog search on BlogHaus reveals hundreds of positive comments - Seagate, AMD, and Microsoft got a grand-slam home run here for a pretty small investment as CES parties go. Add to that we got a lot of great video (for an example, asked Jonathan some snarky questions last week. Er, or that should be "some questions about snarky comments on his blog." Heheh. I should bring Irina along tomorrow. She's the queen of snark. Hope you had a snark-free weekend. It's going to be a blog-lite week as I struggle to catch up on email. Whew. Robert Scoble is the founder of the PodTech.net's Vice President of Media Development.
