Default Is the XBiz show in trouble?
I saw some drama about it earlier today and wondered if it might be suffering from lack of attendance. I think that would be a shame. What a great venue for a webmaster gathering in my opinion.

I'm not going just because of the time of year. There is just too much going on with us around that time.

I cant really say anything about the show - but I can comment on it overall.

conventions today seem to be geared to help their pockets and go for sizzle rather than the meat. Meaning - networking.

the success of a show isnt on whether you drank more, or got to touch more boobies etc. its 3 weeks later when you are counting sales does a show then become worthwhile. everyone is hyped about vegas - but few want to admit it that the show itself has been dying the past few years from being a huge source of leads - to non profitable.

everyone started leaning towards the smaller shows and guess what? phoenix became number one for its networking chances - and now florida internext for the same reason. we are all in one place - and a smaller venue means more opporunities to ask, "who you with? and what do you do?"

There's no drama. Everyone I talk to is going.

The details of my life are quite inconsequential.... very well, where do i
begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from
Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen
year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark.Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteena Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is
nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it.
