Well, I do love the city of Montreal.
Been in the Internet adult business since 1996. Go to every Internext. So I reserved a ticket to cybernet a couple of months ago. Almost more for pleasure than business. Now that my plane leaves tomorrow. I'm checking out their site and the message boards. Nobody is going? Theres like one party? I don't know anyone in the business really so I depend on the parties to meet up with people. I don't see one post about cyernetexpo. I'm going to change my ticket for just 1 day unless you guys start posting!! What's up? Anyone here going to Cybernet? Is it all noobs? JW http://freeporn.com beoyotch!

While I like Fay, Alex, and Lee.... their show is rinky-dink. On top of a despressed porn economy, means that its going to be a small show. Probably only Canadiens... :P
The industry can probably only support a few large shows a year.... and those are Internext.... Fay's is no more then a small regional show now....

I probably would have gone to this one if I didn't have 900 things going on at the moment. I've never been to Montreal but it looks like a great place to visit. Not sure if I'll even make the FL internext show this year unless I get a lot of things finished in the next month or so. C'est la vie.

Actually, I would have to say that everyone is too busy making new contacts and partying to fool with the boards. We are close to 500, and have 7 countries represented..... soo much from regionaL!
 As far as parties.... it is one of those 'you have to be here things. JFK, who seems to make them all - has photographed at 5 so far. We have 3 new parties that have sprang up for Sat night after the Webmaster tour. They just are not publisized, except at the show - no need. No one here is looking at the internet very much. Including me, if my back had not went out and I am having to do do things in slow motion. look for JFKs photos later..... |

That was me serge!
That was one of the best convetions ever. That Orlando one. You know what happens when an 18 year old makes a million dollars? Wellll..That's where I've been for about 4 years. Now I'm 22 and trying to get back into the swing of things since I'm growing up and not partying all day every day. Time to get into some truly big time shit for me! I missed my plane to Montreal now I regret it!@ Maybe I'll take one out tomorrow. I remember GRIM At that partyin Orlando, whatever happened to him? -JW Last edited by gonzo; 05-14-2007 at 03:00 PM. |

Grimm is doing well.... though he blew out his knee is a horrible kitchen accident, he is rehabing it now.
I can get you in touch with him! It is always good to see an oldtimer around.... Those early shows in Orlando were the best!! I hope you did not blow through all your $$$....

Anyone remember an exact count on how many people were at the little get together that Shemp and Al4A had in Atlanta back in the fall? By the end it had to be 70 or so at least.
The amazing thing on that one is this was a totally informal almost impromptu affair. Shemp is coming to town and wants to meet some webmasters. Before ya know it, there's a dinner and Al4A has joined the fray with a big ass suite from hell at the Grand Hyatt for an after dinner party. Most of the Atlanta regulars were on hand, but I'd say well over half of the attendees flew in from out of town. All of this just for dinner and a party with no promotion or advertising other than a thread on GFY. What this tells me is the webmasters like to travel and party, and will look for an excuse for an opportunity to hang out with their own kind (these were mostly TGP types). The catch isn't getting people to come out, it's finding a way to make a little money for the organizers and sponsors. In this case the sponsors weren't really looking for a return I dont think, they were just doing it to network, have fun and meet people. I can certainly respect and appreciate that. I think there's more of a market for "gatherings" than "shows". |

The sponsor return is different than the organizer return. Sponsors should always look for a return on every dollar they spend.
Professional organizers have to build their own money into any event they do -- unlike those getting together for their own networking purposes

Dokk's lake party several years ago was the same way - people there from FL, TX, WY, NC, etc. and Michael's crab boils also bring in the out of towners. When you take away the huge parties, fancy booths with free goodies, and all the other accompanying parts of the big shows, you leave those that are serious about business with partying secondary instead of the other way around. |

They're great for pic-a-nic food, which is the only time I've had anything from there in years.
I was close enough to hear about all the swinger clubs in Atlanta - oy.
I even had a chef when I lived in May-retta - I miss her. A lot.
