Conference Hound-Up January 9, 2012: #CES, @xbiz, @DigitalHwood, #VES12

The West Coast is lighting up again, with several exciting events over here in California.  Also the rest of the world is doing stuff.  I think.

The Adult Film Industry event XBIZ LA is sure to attract some movers and shakers in the porn arena, as this event is rumored to be one of the most important events of the year for business.  I wonder what comes in the swag bag at this kind of event.  Any guesses?

In Detroit they’re doing what they do best – celebrating the automobile.  The North American International Auto Show starts today and continues for a couple of weeks.  The website boasts a “virtual show floor” which lets you explore the event right from your computer.  What a crazy world we live in.

CES is imminent.  As the world gears up for the kickoff tomorrow, let’s not forget that Digital Hollywood at CES starts a day earlier.  This gathering of minds will lead us right into one of the most exciting events of the year.  Stay tuned for exciting updates!  Unless nothing exciting happens.  Our updates can only be as exciting as the news.  Unless I use lots of exclamation points!!

While all you leaders are living it up at Day 2 of PCMA in San Diego, the Virtual Edge Summit is taking a foothold in the very same city.  Now even our Summits are becoming virtual?  Is nothing really real anymore?  It’s like the end of Escape from L.A. all over again…

Enjoy the rest of your day, and this mystery link:
