I head to Las Vegas every January for a massive technology and electronics circus known as CES (yes, that stands for the Consumer Electronics Show but they much prefer the acronym). It’s massive. I mean, it’s more massive than you can imagine; over 180,000 people attended the show this year, with over 4,500 vendors exhibiting their wares in booths ranging from a closet to a football field in a total exhibition space of 2.7 million square feet…
January begins the same way, year after year. For over a decade, I’ve had the opportunity to travel with the Ask Dave Taylor team to CES, the Consumer Electronic Show in Las Vegas. Some assume I attend for the parties and although that is true, it’s so much more than that. It’s my time to dive deep into the latest technology trends, reconnect with some old friends and get to know potential clients. I’ve been fortunate to spend time with some of the smartest people in our industry at CES, debating the future of the latest trends, while reviewing some of the coolest gizmos and gadgets that have come to market. Every year brings new challenges, new opportunities and stories to tell. This year was no different.
Looks like we’re downsizing and moving, which means I can buy a new TV for the first time in, geez, 15+ years. No clue what to get. Plasma? LCD? 2D? 25D? I probably won’t know exactly what size until we get into the place… and then talk my wife into something slightly bigger than she wants 😉 Plus, she’s not a surround-sound person, so I’ll need to pack good sound into a small package. Suggestions?
The International Consumer Electronics Show, #CES2014 has come and gone, it was my 7th year attending as press, but not my last. If you are in the Consumer Electronics, mobile, gaming, healthcare, energy or any industry that is remotely related to consumers and electronics, you cannot miss this show. Every executive, every company, every product that a consumer might want or need will continue to journey to Las Vegas in January for this show because it is the must attend convention every year…
Well, it appears that I have forgot the password to reset all my settings on my samsung d500 phone. Help!
