They've taken one part showing off and two parts new media and combined it into something remarkable.

NBC Universal is giving us space on one of their stages along with the likes of the MSNBC mainstays to do a live show here in 45 minutes. (Tune in at ces.revision3.com at 1 pm PST!) Needless to say, we feel a lot bigger than we actually are. But the fact that NBC as set aside a significant part of their floor space for new media makes me, personally, think of the company in a completely different light. NBC Universal is actually acknowledging the presence of new media independent producers and working with them. This is definitely a first.

So for those of you guys looking for jobs in new media come this summer, send a letter to NBC Universal!

Chris and I will be making the short drive over to Las Vegas this Wednesday to attend the Consumer Electronics Show and hang out at CNTRSTG. If you're going to be in Vegas for the conference or aren't quite 21 and attend UNLV, let us know! Given that CES is going to be a lot of older folks, we'd much rather chill with peers over a round of beer pong or two at O'Sheas.

See you guys there!

Now's probably a good time to recap this year and talk a bit about what 2009 has in store.
