Internext Anyone?
Been somewhat out of the biz for awhile now (working contract mainstream development) and was just wondering if anyone was going to Internext or if it is more of a place for sales reps and schmoozing now than a place to do biz and hook back up with friends/colleagues/businesses? I'm close enough to drive and was just considering it - but only want to go if it's worth the trip.
Anyone? It's definitely been awhile... hope everyone is doing well! |waves| |
I'm going but I suspect a lot of people are not due to the decline in business over the last year.
If you are close enough to attend then it might be worth the drive. Hanging out at the bars is where you meet and talk with people. Te show itself is not all that good anymore. |
Thanks Ramster... that's kind of what I was thinking. It's not like when we used to work the booths with CE/ANS and could chat with all the newbies, meet all the traffic gurus and get something out of the seminars. I really miss those days - but things change.
I really appreciate the input - I might just drive out for a 1-day deal and hang out @ the bars to see who I see and what I can do. Had a foot in adult still, but 90% of my dealings in the last couple of years have been mainstream - just wondering who's still out there and what's up. Thanks again |thumb |
I'm heading out for the long haul, triple show excitement.
|
I'm there the 10th to the 18th

And since AEE overlaps CES, it's not that big a deal, really. |

How twisted is that? I do miss the old days though... the mass CE boob wars were a blast and the NatNet Suites - especially in New Orleans, that was awesome @ CyberNet... |
We'll be there. All of us from the team DTI will be there.
It's gonna be fun for sure. Hope to meet some people from the board. |
As much as Id like to catch up with you Kath I will not be going for the first time in 10 or so years.
But you can catch up with me on ICQ or Oprano. |

Still not sure if I'm going to Internext (or maybe the LA XBiz)... but hey, I'm so close to both locations and I'm working on this new project with MikeB so really thinking about getting "out there" again... I dunno... I kind of felt sort of like I did the whole "been there done that" with all the AWEs and stuff we did back in the day, but there's something to be said for networking and meeting the "new faces" of the biz and finding out what's new and has happened while I've been dipping my toes in the mainstream. |

come, we'll talk mainstream too :) |
Hey Kath |waves|
This will be the 1st show in 11 years that I'm missing - just can;t afford to go to Vegas for 3 days & be away from regular work :( |

Last time we spoke you had talked about not going to future shows so really *I* dropped out because I thought *you* were dropping out. lol J/K Really, it wouldn't be the same without you guys there... I guess I have my answer. I'll have to stay tuned to GG&J to find out when you guys are heading out to another show in the future. There are so many new people. It's hard to tell who's "just a rep" and who's someone I need to know. I think I need to go when I can have an experienced tour guide - I feel SO out of the loop. |banghead| |
XBiz in June/July is a really good show - I highly recommend it.
|
I'm on the fence at the moment. I'm thinking of booking my room and making a game time decision really.

Thanks |bananna| |
Hi Kath... It's feeling like a high turnout this year despite haters/naysayers etc... ;)
I'll be there, as well as XBiz in Feb. These shows will evolve. It just won't all happen overnight. |

I found out yesterday that I will be in Vegas, but badge-less as usual (by choice)

I have better things to do.
I rather spent time with my family. |

The one in my avatar is named Dodger, 7 years old, lab/pit mix - and no, that's not really a cigar in his mouth - it's a dog chewy. He just walks around like that all the time and we finally snapped a pic - maybe he was pimpin' in a previous life - lol |headbang| |
I am going to both shows in Vegas with 4 guys from the www.ero-advertising.com team.
|
i'll be there for Internext and the Summit right after :), going to be a long ride
