This post is from Mindy Baxter: Hello, Happy Monday to you! I hope all had a lovely weekend. I made this card over the weekend I really love it! I so adore these Magnolia Stamps. I used This darling Tilda…

Through the photonic assault, I saw a patch of green in a booth. I walked up and touched it. The grass, it was real, and cool and fresh for the moment. I could not have smiled more broadly. Happy Moments…
…at CES are rare for attendees, in my experience. It’s hard work and a monumental commercial achievement at the expense of sanity, holiday vacations and sleep. But these moments of joy do exist.

Dell showed a 5 inch Android tablet. It’s too small to be more useful than a smartphone, and can’t be pocketed as easily, but for some reason, I found it sexy. And that one of the most mainstream makers of PCs made something so cool, well, I was impressed. I’m not sure I would buy one, but it made me happy.

I miss my dogs. They’re being watched in Japan for the month by Lisa’s parents, and I’m going back to pick them up in a week. They’re black and brown, and these mascots also happen to be black and brown. I guess they reminded me of my pets without me realizing it, and I decided to give them a hug. Cozy.

I made fun of 3D HDTV a lot. Then I tried it on a really good set with fast refresh rates, by Panasonic. I loved it and to me the difference between 2D and 3D is as profound as the difference between black and white and color TV. I got excited at the thought of playing games and watching movies with lots of explosions and lush scenery (Planet Earth, HD!) with a third dimension.

Another great moment of happiness came when I felt we were hitting our stride, as a team, covering the show. No trailer, no booth, no place to set up and write in peace. But since we were all here, together, I was able to ask everyone how they were doing without typing it. It’s nice to communicate without a keyboard, once in awhile.
We bought pizza for ourselves and since the lunches were cold, got some for our pals in the press room.
Seeing the Gizmodo junior team learn so much so fast has been inspiring. I got especially happy watching Don and Kyle nail their shorts and Rosa, well, Rosa found the best story of the show. And the veterans are just so good, they’re always surprising me with astounding finds and speed of insightful writing.
I bumped into a lot of friends here, not only those I work at Gizmodo with. Chris Null, Sean Captain, Leander Kahney, Charlie White, Dylan Tweeney, Joe Brown, Steve Leckart, Danny Dumas, Ryan Block, Veronica Belmont and Pete Rojas, naming a few. And this is actually the first time I’ve worked side by side with Joel Johnson, who returned to Giz only last month.
In a few hours, this show will be largely done for us. Everyone who worked on the blog will have a nice dinner together. Then I’ll go home. That will be my most happy moment.
*We noticed these people were having a good time at CES, too. If you look closely, most of them have to do with people interacting with each other, not the machinery.

Happy Moments at CES [Ces2010]

In Plain English, Happy New Year! On behalf of AkihabaraNews Staff accept our best whishes for 2010!
Now has you may find out we have been quite silent since last week, and yes in Japan after Xmas and a week after the New Year, most companies are closing down for the holidays giving us few opportunities to report fresh news from Japan for you…
However this “break” will give us the chance to finish, well I hope so, a project we started a long time ago but could not finish due to unreliable acquaintances.
Anyway, once again, Happy 2010 and Year of the Tiger (Japanese are ahead of the Chinese calendar)… And see you soon online!

Rants and Raves: Looking Forward and Back
Make your Happy New Year a greener one
Being popular has its perils. Apparently.
All those Christmas cards that adorn your mantelpiece, bookshelves, coffee table and desk will have to be taken down soon and that’ll leave you with a barren looking home and a big pile of glittery cardboard.
Luckily, you can now recycle Christmas cards and this useful site will tell you where your nearest bin is to drop off all those season’s greetings.
Recycle Now has loads of info about what you can recycle and where, so why not go into 2010 with a resolution to do your bit to be a bit greener. Politics aside, it can’t hurt can it?

Psst, Droid owners. Here’s how to hack Android 2.1 onto your happy little Motorola friend.
The Android 2.1 firmware update doesn’t bring much to the Droid plate, apart from added speed (the video below shows one modder unenthusiastically exclaiming “I’m amazed by how fast it is”), three new homepage screens, and Google news and weather. There’s no multitouch, but then, you already know how to do that. [AllDroid via Engadget]
