We’re hard at work, but we thought we’d take a minute to show you some of the goings on from the show floor.  Stay tuned to SiliconAngle.TV for continuing wall-to-wall coverage of VMworld 2010!

Loren Feldman is the New York City based publisher of 1938Media.com, a fascinating, irreverent and funny critic of the West Coast tech scene. Loren used to be an insider, a close friend of the princes of the Web 2.0 world: Michael Arrington, Robert Scoble, Loic LeMeur, and others. But Loren has managed to upset all those people, and more; and so have I simply by retweeting some of his comic puppetry. (I've been blocked and called names because of my re-tweets of Loren's material but that won't stop me. It's a guy with a sock (puppet) on his hand -- people need to lighten up.) Loren's puppets are hilarious. He has puppets representing Robert Scoble, Loic LeMeur, Shel Israel, Peter Cashmore, Dave Winer, Mark Zuckerberg, Gary Vee, La

Compellent is here at the VMworld 2010 conference, holding a live press conference here at TheCUBE (watch it here). The company is announcing a new virtualized storage system for the VMware-based data center for Heineken Netherlands, providing private cloud computing designed to handle growth, streamlined storage and power usage, and automated data management. The goal for Heineken Netherlands was to find the best route for upgrading its HP EVA storage systems, facing a challenge that several IT departments have. Compellent delivered a solution through its channel partner Intel Access B.V., presenting its Fluid Data storage and server architecture. “Enterprises are making strategic choices to deploy game-changing technologies, and C

A giant graphic chronicling Google’s rise to power through an appetite for acquisitions has surfaced on Social Media Graphics, by Scores.org and byJess.net.  The graph runs the length of almost four screen lengths, tracks from February 2001 to present, and splits itself into three columns: Building Revenue Streams, A Little of Both, and Cut Competitive Revenue Streams. The graph is highly imaginative, and informative, to say the least. Looking as it approaches present, you’ll even notice some possible “gaming?” acquisitions that may prove to be a little iffy for Google, as their Games for Google division has taken something of a blow when developer Mark Deloura departed the search giant. Perhaps Google shall fill the void in

Joining a litany of devices that are already Netflix capable—like the Wii, PS3, Xbox360, PC, iPad, and iPad Touch—the iPhone is the newest into the fold. Subscribers to the DVD-by-mail and watch-on-demand company will have instant access to this product as long as they run iPhone OS 3.1.3 or higher. Starting at only $8.99 a month, subscriptions are competitively priced. The app streams video as well as gives users access to their instant queue, rating system, show details, and the genre search. As will all Netflix titles, you can stop in the midst of watching on any one device and pick up in the same place you left off on another. A feature that I’ve used more than once to move around the house without disrupting the continuity of

High quality DivX HD format movies are coming to the Samsung Galaxy S mobile phone. This beautiful Android phone will be the first mobile capable of playing 720p resolution DivX HD movies on both the handset’s 4-inch screen and through HD capable devices. From the company statement, To enjoy DivX video on the Galaxy S, consumers can load their video libraries of both standard definition and HD 720p movies in the DivX format on the internal and external memory (expandable to 32GB) and then watch their collections anywhere they choose. In addition, the Galaxy S can connect directly to other DivX Certified devices, such as HDTVs, turning it into a powerful mobile set-top box in the living room. The Galaxy S will also support the secure p

The Galaxy Tab  is very real. I’ve personally played with this amazing device and it blew me away. Yes, I work for Samsung so I’m a bit biased, but as a geek and Android fan I can tell you that I’m extremely excited. And based on today’s hundreds of awesome tweets to @SamsungTweets, it is obvious that there are many out there who share the excitement. Here’s a glimpse of the awesomeness that’s soon to come… Get ready. [Editor’s Note: Esteban cross-posted this at his personal blog.
