GNC-2010-01-25 #546 Live from Jacksonville

Posted by geeknews at 8:28 PM on January 25, 2010

My time here in Florida is rapidly coming to a close and I will be heading back to Honolulu. I am suffering bandwidth withdrawals as the hotel connectivity is simply horrid. Someday Hilton will figure out how to keep their customers happy. But the Homewood Suites here in Jacksonville need to work on their bandwidth. Should be an exciting day on Wednesday we will see if all the fuss is worth it.

Tech Podcast Network Live Show at NBC Universal during CES 2010!

Posted by geeknews at 9:22 AM on January 10, 2010

The team from the Tech Podcast Network which include your humble host, had our first live streamed event from the NBC Universal booth at CES 2010. We had 6 guest on the show, introducing some very cool products and services. The live streamed event from NBC Universal was unique in that our friends at NBCU allowed our team access to their main stage.

Well over 8500 people watched the show as it was being streamed live. The support from NBC Universal staff was remarkable. We hope that you will enjoy this show as much as we enjoyed putting it on for you. Big thank you to Sharp for sponsoring “The Blogger Lounge” and make sure you remember to watch the Olympics on NBC Universal this winter in Vancouver.

In this episode we have a sneak peak at the Red Scarlett Camera. Along with the new Yeti from Blue Mic, GPS Maplock, YurBuds Earphones, Connectify, Makerbot
,
We did a second live stream from NBC Universal on Sunday January 10th as well.
