Back on the East Coast, Catching Up On Sleep
Posted by junger - 01/11/08 at 03:01:40 pm
I got back from CES yesterday, taking the red-eye into Dulles and spending most of the morning asleep in bed.
Overall, the show was okay. Like every year, it's busy, but due to the amount of "news" that comes out, I spent most of my time in the press room, writing up stories and turning around slideshows.
From when I arrived on Saturday night until Wednesday evening, I literally spent most of my hours working. Yeah, I slept some, but from the West Coast timezone (gotta get stories live for East Coast ASAP) and the events at night, CES makes for some long days.
The work obviously pays off, as CE Pro had a number of good traffic days.
Besides the reporting, it was nice to meet a few people in the industry. I had a nice chat with Patrick Norton of Tekzilla, caught up with Dave Zatz and met Ben Drawbaugh of EngadgetHD (and team).
Outside of the industry, I got my picture taken with Big Papi David Ortiz and saw Brian Williams do the nightly news.
Thankfully, there aren't any tradeshows coming up for me … at least not until EHX Spring, March 11-15 in Orlando.
