So, I'm here in Las Vegas gearing up for the start of CES 2010 tomorrow. Since this is my 2nd year attending CES, I wanted to share with you some advice as well as what I'll be carrying in my gear bag to help keep me connected without creating unnecessary weight.
By now, we're used to seeing a new Google logo on holidays or other special occasions. But today Google has added in an extra treat. Head over to Google and without anything in the search field, click on the "I'm Feeling Lucky" button.
Well, first of all, hello again! Yes, I'm still alive. No, I didn't abandon you. Yes, I feel extremely bad that it has been a very long month since I've written here, shared fun videos, or heard your thoughts on what's happening. I could make 1,000 excuses about why I haven't written lately. But, the bottom line is that I'm back. I have a list full of ideas that I want to share with you, videos I've been collecting up, and experiences that I've had over the past few weeks.
There are many reasons why when I was growing up I always wanted to move to Boston. I've always loved Boston and used to come to the city often on class trips, to explore, for sporting events, the Tall Ships or any other reason I could find. Back in January I got that opportunity to move to Boston when we opened the doors to New Marketing Labs. One of the things I had always wanted to do but never got the chance was to go to the 4th of July celebration. Well, a few things aligned right in our schedules and last night Laura and I ventured down to the waterfront to watch the 4th of July spectacular. It was simply amazing.
A couple weeks ago Chris Brogan and I were in Santa Barbara to hang out with the good folks over at Citrix Online (client). When our good friend Graham Farrar heard we were coming to town, he was nice enough to hook us up big willie style with a ridiculous mansion. You see, among a ton of other stuff, Graham runs the ultra-cool Santa Barbara Luxury Vacation Rentals. He set us up at the Vista Riviera which was amazing! What would any content creator in their right mind do? Yeah, we filmed some video as you'd expect.
