In defence of the Phoenix Forum, I have definitely gotten more business done in the last 48 hours that I did at the last three shows. And contrary to popular belief, it's not a big drink and fuck your face off. Sure, that element exists. But it does at any show.

If you could only afford one show, I'd make it this one. I haven't gone to one seminar at this show. I don't have time. I'm too busy doing real business with people. I have so much work to do when I get home. I collapse into bed last night at 11:15 pm and skipped two parties because I just couldn't do it. You spend all day in the courtyard meeting people, you're baked by the end of the day.

The Florida Internext just didn't have enough gay people to make it worth my while. It was a waste of time. If you're in the straight side of business, it may be worthwhile.

Las Vegas Internext, another colossal waste of time. Too big, too much walking from the hotel to the show floor, and when you get there, there's nothing to see.

I looked at the Montreal show, but it's so soon after Phoenix and too close to Florida, and there didn't seem to be enough people going to warrant even the five hour drive down.

We'll be attending Webmaster Access in Toronto, but only because we can walk to the show, so the cost will be minimal to check it out.

Cheers,
Michael
