I really don't care for how Internext has evolved at this stage in the game - however, that being said, the Vegas show is the biggest expo of the year and always draws a huge crowd. The best part is that there is SO much going on - hospitality suites, networking dinners, special board/site/sponsor parties, etc. Really, the booths and organized show events really have become sort of secondary to a lot of people - it's BEING THERE that counts.
With 10 mos in I would say that you should definitely go - and you've gotten a lot of good advice here about business cards and such... also - you don't HAVE to stay at Mandalay Bay - there are lots of other cheaper choices around town to consider, and flights to Vegas are always a good deal - they like to get gamblers IN town so it's usually WAY more affordable than the Florida show.
Re: GG having a booth - I don't think he ever "had" a booth even when he was associated with that resource that "had" a booth (we tried chaining him to it, but he's such a free spirit) - he's usually out walking the expo floors, hanging out in the suite or (shhhhhhh) sitting at a slot machine - lol
A board party would be cool - would love to meet more folks from GG&J - lots of cool people here!
