Countdown to Vegas

Like a couple of wooden Indians, Weaver and I have been spotted on the loading dock lately, rendered utterly agog by our fancy-schmancy passes to NAB. What is NAB, you ask? Only the world's largest electronic media show, a 5 day city-state of TV geeks, evil geniuses and cyber-nerds of every description, held every year in squeaky clean Las Vegas. This time Chris Weaver, Brad Ingram and I will be among the 100 thousand some in attendance. While we're there, we'll launch a hard target search for the latest in technology, the scariest convention-goers, the most righteous freebie, plus a slow drizzle of adult beverages and casino peanuts. Look for all the ugly details to splay out on our respective blogs, and be sure to check out b-roll.net, where we'll post a series of mostly-in-focus video segments from the jam-packed floor of the Las Vegas Convention Center. Along the way, Weaver and I hope to hook up with the always entertaining JL Watkins of Little Lost Robot fame, before crashing the scene at the tenth anniversary B-roll Bash. Of course Brad Ingram is also making the trip, but judging from this picture, the NPPA Region 6 director has his own ideas about killing time in Vegas. Stay tuned for details...
