Class 6 Assignment 3

Attached are the screenshots of me obtaining contacts through utilizing the Google search engine. To expedite the process, I have searched the product news and focused on getting any of the executives or the head developers names. Focusing on news materials that discuss the CES or any other IT convention was an useful method to obtain the contacts.

In regards to product topic contacts, I employed the same method.

The two screenshots below are basic Google Docs screenshots to show my work:
iED Buzz! Contacts
