The Consumer Electronics Show, Abridged

Husband Steve is traipsing through the monolithic Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas this week, and I've been following his every Twitter move to get a few insights here and there. These little snippets are unverified (not that I doubt him, but he is probably tired and bombarded by shiny objects) but nonetheless interesting:

• The future of communication will be pen to dialtone to email (that'll make texting either easy or obsolete ... can't wait)

• 66 percent of adults use social media (yes, I'm a Facebook addict when I'm avoiding stuff I don't want to do)

• Speaking of which, Facebook adds 450,000 new members every day (Whoa)

• 50 percent of Google searches were from iPhones (I can account for some of those ...)

• Nero's at Caesars has a "rockin'" filet (OK, that one just made me mad)

• 1 out of 3 households has a DVR (couldn't live without it)

More to come, I'm sure. Stay tuned ...
