It's a good thing you have no influence on CES or AVN because you clearly have no clue.

Put away the 'Hateraid' everyone.
I think CES needs to combine it's show with AVN. Then don't give any passes out, let everyone bid, with the proceeds going to charity. Or better yet, let everyone drink and have tricycle races like on 'Revenge of the Nerds'.
The following posters need anal probes:

Kudos to @blakeley you showed the 'stiffs' how to have fun! You can have my pass next year.

As for those who think CES is overrated, the tech blog sites certainly disagree; they were falling all over themselves to get coverage. Look how much they've whined in the past that they are just as serious as any press and should be treated as such?

BLAKELEY

]]> <![CDATA[Gawker staffer banned from CES, "additional sanctions ... under discussion"]]> Any chance he got banned from AVN, too? I'm pretty sure he'd be more upset if he received a lifetime ban from them.

- No protective sleeve for press room coffee cup
- Photo credential only allows you to take pics of booth dudes, not babes
- Shocks from a designer Taser anytime you roll your eyes at a vendor's use of jargon
- Must begin every press conference question with "I'm captivated by your new product or service and feel my readers will want to know all about it..."
- Mandatory lunch with Scoble and Calacanis. At Circus Circus.

If it was a restraining order, well, that's another story.

CES significantly underestimates its own lameness.

The CES people have just proven they need Gizmodo's coverage at least as much as Giz needs their press passes.

The "additional sanctions" part is a joke, doubt anything will come of that. Trust me, Blakeley will probably be in Vegas this time next year shooting off bottle rockets in the Motorola booth.
