CES Video: We Did It!

Our last — and dare I say least essential to the gadget nerd — video from CES is above for your enjoyment. It's also probably the one that most accurately portrays our day-to-day on the showfloor.

I have to say, I had a blast at this year's CES, hanging out with all the BBG and Boing Boing Video crew, as well as many of our friends within the industry. We puttered around like the dilettantes we are, drinks in hand, and just tried to enjoy the spectacle and the company, while still skimming off the strangest and most interesting products around.

But we couldn't have pranced around the place in good conscience if it weren't for the diligence of sites like Gizmodo, Engadget, CrunchGear, Oh Gizmo!, Shiny Shiny, Wired, Ars, and dozens of other gadget and tech writers out there sifting through products to sort the inspired from the insipid. There's no shame in having a good time when you're working, but I want to acknowledge the hard work of others when I see it. We may all be competitors in the loosest sense, but when you're walking the floors packed primarily with local action news teams, morning madhouse DJs, and lifestyle section stringers for Ladie's Home Journal, it's hard to see all the other online tech writers out there hustling as anything other than friends.

If you prefer a direct MP4 download, well then just go ahead and download it why don't you?

See if you can spot my love handles in the special features!

Wow. I usually only date Wookies, but did you happen to get that Yeti's number?

That guy is the best representative of Canadian ChemEng students I could possibly think of. Thank you for that. (I want one of those little robochickens too.)
