13 Reflections from C.E.S.

By Joseph Jaffee, Crayon

So as most of you know I'm at CES for the second consecutive year. Last year I was with our Panasonic client and up to my eyeballs managing (or do my best to manage) the likes of Chris Brogan {he's such as Diva) and the less needy Steve Garfield, Ponzi Pirillo, Stacey DeBroff and Melissa Pierce. This year I'm flying solo and taking in the sights and sounds of this crazy anomaly called CES.

So last year NBC Universal had this blogging booth in the shape of a circle. On a bunch of flat screens, it would read, "Now blogging" and would include the name of someone who was hunched over a laptop presumably surfing porn. I remember thinking to myself, "what a bunch of losers/nerds/etc"

And so this year, I'm sitting under a sign that reads, "Now blogging: Joseph Jaffe".

I'm actually glad I got the chance to do some longer form blogging. It's been way too long. I also get the opportunity to sit down (finally). recharge my tired iPhone, drink my quad grande Americano that I waited in line for 40 minutes to get and hang out with the likes of Revision 3's Jim Louderback. paidContent's Staci Kramer and Hack College's Kelly Sutton.

We're the cool ones.

Anyhoo, here are 10 make that 13 - reflections of my trip so far in Sin City. They're in no particular order and are not necessarily even remotely representative of the real state of affairs.

Here's the post from my blog on JaffeJuice.com:

Now it's time to hit the tables. Wish me luck...
