Whew, it’s hard to believe it, but yet another CES is upon us! With all the trade shows we attend each year, they seem to simply fly by, but CES is always one that’s easy to look forward. We don’t only get to check out the latest products on the market, but meet up with old friends, eat some good food and perhaps partake in copious amounts of alcohol consumption (after content is written, of course!)
I admit that I haven’t been keeping up on CES related news lately, as I’ve been knee-deep in preparing content, but I have a good feeling this year is going to be a good one. Last year, people considered CES to be the smallest ever, but this year, it doesn’t seem like the economy is doing much to hut the event, as we’ve received more e-mails from companies this year than ever before.
At the show, Intel will unveil it’s Westmere-based CPUs, while AMD is likely to remain low-key, though it may announce its newest mid-range graphics card (not sure if there’s an embargo so that’s all I’ll say). During the show, we’ll be meeting with all of the companies we deal with on a regular basis, among others, so I suspect I’ll see some amazing new product there. Of course, I’m not totally gluttonous with my information… I’ll share, as much as I possibly can.
Like previous years, I’ll keep our news section updated with information from the show, whether it be new products, technologies or something off the beaten path. I might also do a “diary” forum post as I did with Computex, where I keep everyone in the loop regarding what I’m doing while at the event, so you can see first-hand what it’s like to go to such a conference.
In addition to our news coverage, I’ll likely write a one-pager article for companies that have a lot of interesting products to show off, and also will keep a static article at the top of the page which will include all of the URLs to our coverage. As I write this, my mind’s a blur thanks to a hectic weekend, so what you should take away from this is this: visit the site often this week. We’ll have lots of great stuff for you, CES-related and not!
As for that picture above… no, it’s not CES. But, it’s definitely Vegas!
