Atlanta GA- what's there to see there?

[RawAlex]

Holy crap... $245 a night for the bottom end rooms (shower only?). Apparently one of the things to see in Atlanta is your banker!

It's the "W", what would you expect?

$245 a night is cheap, I typically expect at least $300 a night in a major city to stay in a W.

It's just another expense of doing buisness... but if you did all of the shows in a year you could dump an easy 20-30k a year on hotels and flights.

More than that, even flying coach with airline prices what they are now. Easily double last year. Anything over 3 hours is typically $600 or so right now. Friend of mine just went to Africa, $2500 coach. Same flight last year was $800. First class was $10K per seat this time.

Miles and hotel points start kicking in though and will take a bit of the edge off, but all told that's typically only around a 5% kick back. But you can milk a lot of perks and upgrades especially with the hotel points.

Why do they pick high end hotels for most of the shows? For the most part this isnt a high end bunch, working in front of computers in their underwear. lol

Rank and file webmasters make up a pretty small percentage of the attendees at most shows these days.
