Not sure if you have table space for this... but a laptop or LCD sitting on the table with the bitcoin WebGL globe on it would be a great attention getter and conversation piece. You could also show the BitcoinMonitor.com page... these things should demonstrate visually how Bitcoin is something new and different, and the tech crowd should be quite receptive.

Even better - put one of these visuals on a large LCD tv behind your booth.

Good luck!

Even better - instead of those, we'll have the Blockchain.info set to ding every time a new transaction appears

this is very funny. i'm now leaving that page tab open just to listen to the tx ding.

you know how us fanatics need that constant stimulation...

I have some brochures printed up which I will post here in this OP as soon as we lift the embargo (they include some top-secret unreleased Bit-Pay products

)

Do we have to wait until next week for this???

This is great.

I realized today that the phrase "sending someone money with bitcoin is as easy as sending an email" is a powerful line. Not only is it a fairly accurate analogy of how bitcoin operates from a user standpoint, but it's also something that people can latch onto very easily.

Also, as evoorhees said, you should show the globe. Wink

It has a wow effect, and people can play with it. Tactile feedback improves memory and they can explore where all the nodes are.

I think the demographic most likely to jump into bitcoin based on reporting from CES would be anyone watching G4, keep your eyes peeled for their "talent" too bad Olivia is gone, she could convince mobs to follow her into hell

Kevin Pereira has a short attention Span.

Great to hear! I e-mailed a couple people at Smart Money & the Wall St. Journal that I've talked with before about other tech/finance projects. Will post again if I hear anything back.
