A tech demo shows off the usual tech things.

Then I'm going to jump to a link.

Using the usual tech devices.

We have a pointing device called our mouse.

Doing the usual tech productivity tasks.

Now we're connected audio. You can see my work, you can point at it, and I can see

your face and we can talk. Except it's 1968 and it's going to set the computing agenda for the

next half century, then almost immediately be ignored.

The mother of all demos on NOAA Little More.

Get it wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to a Daily Tech News show Special. I am here to talk to Daniel Kassen Yall, industry communications at

CTA, the Consumer Technology Association that puts on C. E.S.

Daniel, thank you so much for joining me.

Thank you for having me. It's good to be on.

So a very different C. E.S. this year, obviously, not one that when when we spoke with with folks last year

we would have expected but how big was it given all the differences what how many exhibitors how many people were involved?

Yeah, so definitely a different year this year you know I'm I'm finding myself

Missing Vegas and the excitement of the show but it was still a really great year that we kind of had to build from the ground up and reimagine it. This year we're expecting over 150 attendees, 150,000 attendees, excuse me. We had 1,900 exhibiting companies, over 100 hours of conference sessions.

So a lot of great people who joined us and a lot of great announcements. I know I was feeling on day, day zero, media day

before media one, the announcements were coming fast and furious.

Yeah, that part felt familiar.

Yes.
