Hey folks. It’s been a couple weeks since I’ve posted last, so I thought I would let you know what is going on with Dorkazine. It is officially in transition to the new server. I was hoping to have it moved over by now, but the move to a new CMS makes it a little more difficult. I want to preserve all posts, comments and other data.

Of course, the trip to the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) hasn’t been helping. CES is a lot bigger for us because we will be doing live video from the CES floor. Our good friends at NBC Universal are letting us borrow the stage to do our show on Saturday (4 PM PST) and Sunday (3 PM PST).

Dorkazine will be back on regular production after Jan 12. That is, unless I see some dorky items at CES. Then I might upload some great pictures….

So Happy New Year. It’s gonna be a Blue Moon this New Years’ eve, then we celebrate the new decade. So let’s look back at the dorky 00′s!

What other items should be added to this list?

When I start looking at starting a company, I try to put some thought into the name. Research it, make sure it isn’t associated to anything bad.

I think this company should have thought about their name a little bit. While at the consumer Electronics show (#CES09), I saw this company. They make security cameras, E-books readers, digital picture frames and soo much more.

But will you buy from Astak?
