Yep, I'm on my way there!

International CES 2015 is starting in Vegas.

Last year more than 160,00 retailers, manufacturers, press, etc. attended. It's expected to be even bigger this year! (My feet are tired already.) The year I mesured my steps, I walked 17.2 miles in 3 days. Yep, CES is big!

Just from the press releases I've received, hundreds of them, they'll be a ton of "wearables" on display. Most focus on your health, exercise, sleep patterns, appointments, info on in-coming calls, all while telling the time. One of the different wearables I already saw is the Visijax, a wearable jacket for bikers with built-in LED turns signals. Second most received press releases are those pitched “smart home” gadgets. I already saw the Internet refrigerator that tells you when you're running low on milk, but I can tell that pretty easily when I pick up the container. They'll also be a LOT of 3D printers at the show. They are being used in many exciting ways. A friend of mine recently went to a techie dentist and only had to wait 40 minutes for a new 3D printed tooth. They'll be lots of car tech gadgets and far less interesting, tons of phone cases and tablet holders. I'll sort through as much as I can and report back on The Giz Wiz, The Tech Guy, World News Now and Computer America! In the photo is Jeff Joseph Sr. VP, CES Communications and Strategic Relationships. (He's also a nice guy.)
