Founder and CEO Fergus Hurley, Fiona O’Donnell-McCarthy, and Brad Smith will be attending and representing Clixtr at the International CES convention held annually in Las Vegas from January 7-10th. The International Consumer and Electronics Show is hosted by the Consumer Electronics Association and is one of the largest technology conferences in the world.
Held annually in January, thousands descend upon Las Vegas to check out the coolest, newest technology being showcased (many of which are often either concepts, or won’t be in production and released until late in the year). This year, Clixtr has made it as a Top 10 finalist for the Mobile Apps Showdown live contest, and a Top 20 semi-finalist for the Mobile Apps Showdown online contest held at CES and hosted by NetShelter.net. Since I won’t be attending CES, I’ll be living vicariously through photos, and luckily for me, Clixtr allows me to view photos in real time.
If I were to attend CES, you can be sure I’d be using Clixtr extensively. If there’s one thing I’m obsessed about, it’s cutting-edge technology and gadgets – and there’s nothing more exciting than sharing this obsession with others. Here’s how I would use Clixtr at CES:
1.) Take pictures of all of the hottest gadgets at CES, then share the Clixtr event on Facebook, Twitter, and my address book so friends and followers can live vicariously though my photos.
2.) I see something really awesome and I want to share it with my buddies that are attending CES—I can share the Clixtr event with them so they can see just how awesome the item is and check it out themselves.
3.) I’m eating a delicious meal at the Wynn or Bellagio (or anywhere else), and I want my friends to join me. I can show them just how juicy my meal is by sharing the Clixtr event with them (nom nom nom!).
4.) Take photos of the Clixtr Team presenting on stage for the Mobile Apps Showdown (by the way, we’ll be on stage on Thursday at 10:30am and Saturday at 12:30pm. If you’re attending CES, we’d love for you to join us!).
In addition to presenting on stage, the Clixtr team at CES will be walking around looking at some of the hottest technology to date. They’ll also be answering questions and talking to press. If you’d like to meet the team or you want to know more about Clixtr, feel free to send an email to info (at) clixtr (dot) com.
