Lust Object: The Asus Pink Picnic Netbook

005

In the past two weeks, I have attended two blogger conferences. Both had a panel discussion or talk about FTC disclosure.  This is a serious topic that all bloggers need to know about.  Unfortunately, I have no free gadget to disclose by going to the Microsoft Preview event on Tuesday. It was fun watching people play with Kinect which is like a Wii but more Minority Report-ish. Vinny from Naughty By Nature was there, as well as Peter Rojas.

What I fell in love with is this hot pink ASUS netbook designed by Karim Rashid that looks like a picnic backet. Isn’t it the most fun?!  It just screams picnic in the park with free wifi.

music, party

Zuning In

Tuesday, I went to a Microsoft part at the lovely Park Avenue Armory.  I was one of the lucky people to get a Zune HD for free. It’s a great media player, but I still need to figure out how it all works.  Now, I can listen to radio again, so I hear Jay-Z’s “Empire State Of Mind” anytime I scroll over to Hot 97.

DJ Tiesto performed at the party, and though I am not a big fan of club music, I danced my ass off. Plus the carpet on the floor made it easy to jump around.

Afterward, the Boy and I went to Rodeo Bar for dinner and saw this group, The Ukeladies. They were fun!
