Gizmodo Shows How Not to Be a Convention Creeper at CES
Gadget geek blog Gizmodo spent some time at the 2010 Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show this year, and along with their awesome CES coverage, Gizmodo published a spectacular article titled: Booth Babe Confessions.
There have been a few global conventions in the past where attendees and even vendors displayed a complete disregard for booth babes, but Gizmodo did a stand up job with their pictorial which includes a video that shows attendees how not to be a creeper.
Implications - The 'how not to be a creeper' video is a brilliant concept by the geek tech blog Gizmodo. These confessions from the woman should serve as a stern reminder that although they look pretty, creeping is never the way. I am really glad that Gizmodo made this video.
