About Tim Higgins of 
I don’t know how I became a web journalist, but I suspect it has something to do with karma or past lives. A few decades as an engineer in the automatic test equipment industry taught me how to make products tell their secrets, which I shares via SmallNetBuilder. I've created a number of influential networking-focused websites including PracticallyNetworked, SmallNetBuilder (version 1.0), TomsNetworking and now version 2.0 of SmallNetBuilder.

How it works:
We welcome any and all 'hot' products slated to appear at CES. Our experts screen them. They'll continue to narrow the list until we get to a Top 25 and then a Top 10. We'll also conduct a online vote among the Top 25 to determine a "people's winner." The Top 10 will appear at a CES supersession where a live voting audience will determine which deserves to be the Last Gadget Standing.
When: Saturday, 10:30 a.m., Jan. 9, 2010
Where: Room N255-257, LVCC, North Hall, 2010 International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
