A few nice things people said about us

I’m back in SF now — for good this time — so it’s safe to say it’s all over. I’m not really one to toot my own horn (ok, sometimes I am), but a lot of people had a lot of really nice things to say about the work we did in the last week. (I think the image above helps illustrate.) It wasn’t any small feat, but it was a hell of a lot of fun, and for once I can’t wait to head back and do it again. Anywho, ready for some kool-aid?
- Scoble lightly declared us champs of CES. (You’re the tops too, pal!)
- Hitwise says we’re not just the biggest tech blog, but the biggest tech site, period. Noice!
- Jason follows that one up Calacanis style.
- ZDNet liveblogs my liveblog, and gives us a grade A.
- The Times also put us at the top of their list of go-to sources for info. Too bad they misquoted us a little, but that’s ok.
- In between utterly flattering comments, Blogging Stocks points out short-term investors also might have used our coverage to get a quick 9% return. Damn. Too bad it’s in our code of ethics that we’re not allowed to invest in any companies we write about, unless in mutual funds, etc. (Disclaimer: they’re owned by my employers, WIN an AOL.)
- Scott the Squid gave us a bit o’ props.
- The Technology Free Press had a pretty positive opinion.
- A name drop on The Guardian. And this kind chap votes us as having the best MWSF coverage, thanks!
- I miss Marc as he watches from afar.
Did I miss any? Still looking for more… but to the hundreds, thousands, and millions that dropped a nice note, left a kind post, or even just tuned in to our coverage, thanks. I know it’s a cliché, but as I said when I quit my day job to do this stuff, it’s your support that’s made it all possible.

Well done amico. It’s nice to ride on the coat tales of infamy.
Ryan,
You, Peter and the rest of the team did an amazing job this week. Just attending all the keynotes and posting must have been hard enough, but to podcast at 3am every night was the icing on the cake. I appreciate it.
Thanks man, it was a long, but amazing week. Glad people got something out of it!
