sunday at NAB is get your FREE shwagBag day. this year, in an uber-chic mini-bike messenger bag, two of the fliers were from people we actually use: BDI (they designed our news set) and WideOrbit (they write the traffic software). other stuff included a flier on how you (or your multinational communications corporation) can get your transmitter on top of the Empire State Building, with an associated snappy note pad and pen as well as a tin in the shape of a cell phone full of mints (insert George Carlin bit about a guy who gets pushed over the edge when he gets a sample of scope in the mail here).
biggest innovation so far, the "double-clip" lariat which keeps your hall pass from turning around so the sales people on the floor can't see your name. if this is any indication of how far technology has come in two years, well, i best not wear socks monday when the exhibits actually open, 'cause they're gonna get knocked clean-off!
as you can see in the photo, the green single clip design of 2006 is far inferior.
insert "finishing touch quip" here...and why yes, i am already sunburned from walking back from the convention center to the hotel. thanks for asking.
