I am blown away by the effort and coordination of the SiliconANGLE (blogging) and Wikibon (research) teams.  This kind of high quality, high quantity, real time production is amazing.  This is the future of media. Congrats,  SiliconANGLE teammates!!! More importantly, a big thanks to the people who made it possible by providing support and funding: VMware, HP, EMC, IBM, Intel, NetApp, Broadcom, and Solidfire, and  many thanks to all the guests who were the stars on SiliconANGLE.tv’s #theCUBE
