Back When We Thought the Downturn Had Already Hit...
I was looking through old TechTicker pieces because it seems I'm at least making a cameo appearance at CES this year. Tony Hsieh, Brian Solis, SomewhatFrank Gruber and I are (hopefully) throwing a HUGE, EPIC opening night bash, just waiting on our sponsor to come through. (Fingers x'ed!) I'll update via the blog and Twitter as it will be amazing and you HAVE to come. Even more amazing than Tony and my BlogWorld party, if that's possible...
At any rate, I thought it might be fun to do some man-on-the-street stuff at the conference for TechTicker, mostly because my editor, Brad, is brilliant at stitching on-location footage together. I was thinking of this piece from SXSW (yes I did things there besides get heckled), so I dug it out to show my producer.
It's actually pretty funny to watch. We seem so naive just a few months ago! Valleywag? Gone. Rev3? Layoffs. Get Satsifaction? Well, still throwing epic parties at least...
Watch and enjoy.

New Book
An unforgettable portrait of the emerging world's entrepreneurial dynamos Brilliant, Crazy, Cocky is the story about that top 1% of people who do more to change their worlds through greed and ambition than politicians, NGOs and nonprofits ever can. This new breed of self-starter is taking local turmoil and turning it into opportunities, making millions, creating thousands of jobs and changing the face of modern entrepreneurship at the same time. To tell this story, Lacy spent forty weeks traveling through Asia, South America and Africa hunting down the most impressive up-and-comers the developed world has never heard of....yet.
