Vegas Baby

Lack of posts lately, I'm in Las Vegas for the NAB convention. Not a lot of time to blog here.

A few quick tips if you come to NAB.

1) Bring lip balm
2) Never allow yourself to be pulled into a meeting in a room on the floor
3) Drink a glass of water for every glass of booze
4) Flash your business card and continue walking into the parties, don't wait for them to check your name
5) If you like cookies, take the whole tray to the table

Time for breakfast. More when I have time.

"Never allow yourself to be pulled into a meeting in a room on the floor"

on the gaming floor? you are sitting on the floor? I'm puzzled.

I don't get it either.

Typically at large industry conventions, there is a section of the show "floor" that is allocated to company specific meeting rooms.

The meetings that occur in these rooms are almost always private; company to company.

I agree that floor meetings are annoying. "Hi we're Microsoft and you're Disney. Lets cut a deal." says the slick haired "Product Manager".

Who has time for breakfast when there are trays of cookies?
