I’ll be at Canada’s hottest videogame event tonight, attending the Canadian Videogame Awards. The best and brightest in Canada’s fastest growing entertainment sector will be in the audience and up for awards to recognize the Herculean efforts they made in 2009. Joining me will be Elliot Chun, tech blogger for Future Shop. We’ll be rubbing elbows with those in the running and hopefully getting the scoop on what they’re up to next.
