pnosker.com

Well it's been fun everybody. This is my last article for pnosker.com unfortunately. I know many of you out there (Bob) didn't exactly enjoy my articles and I probably should've put more work into them instead of rushing them out to meet the news cycle but it is what it is now. Barring some kind of offer somewhere, this is probably it for me writing. I have the option of returning to pnosker.com in six months but will be in law school then so I unfortunately won't have the time. 

You'll get to read more writers now with different styles as the front page won't be loaded with my articles. The roster for the staff keeps growing and hopefully the site will too. I want to thank Pat Nosker for giving me this opportunity even if I was very demanding on this and I'm sorry for that. I want to thank the other writers for not firing back at me when I challenged them even if I did deserve it. I want to thank all the companies and great PR reps I came into contact with who helped this grow and receive many products that we couldn't dream of receiving just a few months ago. I want to thank everyone who clicked on that Glenn Beck article and all the mystery people who kept reading that Pokemon article last summer. I want to thank Jessica Lukacs for everything she's helped me with in regards to the site. Thanks to Lucka for making me review stuff when I got lazy. 

I hope this site can keep its momentum going forward. All I can say to all the writers here is to keep writing. Quality and quantity aren't mutually exclusive even if I made it seem like that. Just keep writing. I didn't know anyone would read that Glenn Beck thing. It just happened unexpectedly. The more quality articles you write, the higher the likelihood that people will click on one of them and come to the site. 

Thanks to everyone I missed for everything.

I would like to welcome our new Digital Media editor, Matthew Convente, to the pnosker.com staff.  He will be providing us with excellent insight into the world of Imaging, Video, and other media creation and manipulation.  He is a trained digital and graphic design artist and is a welcome addition to our growing site.  Matthew will also be covering Apple news and product reviews for the site.

Stay tuned to our future coverage!

Well it's been a busy two weeks for us.  First, we were at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show for the first time ever from January 4-9, and I have been at the National Association of Music Merchants show for the past couple of days.  A lot of very interesting things have been happening in the world of consumer electronics and audio.  This is a summary of my own encounters.

As you may or may not know, five of us at pnosker.com will be traveling to Las Vegas next week to cover our first annual Consumer Electronics Show.  Yes, we're still not very big, but that gives us the opportunity to be more personal with our readers.  Jonathan Maltz and Matthew Torino will be covering gaming/AV as well as some gadgets, Michael Convente will be covering health/biotech and gadgets, and David Boehm and I will be covering computing and gadgets.

We would love to have some input on what you want to see us cover.  We already have countless appointments setup and will surely have enough to talk about, but if you have some particular interest or desire to see something covered in depth, please let us know.

We will also be unveiling our first Video Reviews and coverage on our Youtube Channel.

Please, comment here and tell us: What would you like to see at CES?

We still have a few more pre-CES stories to share.  Keep your eyes open for our coverage and remember to check back from January 4-9.

Also, have a happy new year!
