Alibaba is a great site for finding suppliers of almost anything you could need when you start making your products in a bit of volume. I have used them for a number of years now and it works quite well to sort out the companies you would like to deal with. They also have a service called AliExpress which is for single item purchases or small volume purchases. Pricing on AliExpress is similar to on Ebay.
I saw that Alibaba had a booth at CES, I didn’t check it out since I already know what they are all about but while roaming around look what I stumbled on. That’s right the Alibaba Robot! This is obviously a guy on a Segway with some voice alteration and audio clip playback. The guy is good at getting the crowd hyped and is quite funny. Even with his back to our camera the air guitar Alibaba Robot experience is very funny.
