    Here's my Internext wrap-up / review.

    I better try and get this out before I completely forget everything

    Let's do this in two parts, business and party.

    BUSINESS

    I was impressed here. Coming into the show, with the higher attendance prices, I was expecting not many people and not many potential affiliates/webmasters. I was quite wrong.

    I think this show saw some of the quickest ROI of any show ever, as during the show we had great signup nights on Friday and Saturday, and then this past Monday was the HIGHEST day of new signups in our 9-year history

    I still have ot get to all my follow-ups now, but for business, I give this show


    PARTYING

    Again, my expectations weren't too high coming in, so I was pleasently surprised. I'll try and cover each event I went to below:

    Thursday

    Solid Gold

    The place was a little packed, but overall was fun the short time we were there. They had some really hot waitresses too.

    GFY Warm-up

    Got to talk to a lot of people here, good way to start the show. We definately got a bit "warmed up"

    After that, pretty much hung in the pool area, until it was time to head to sleep to wake up for the first morning of the show.

    Friday

    I've gotta apologize to DJ Airek for not being able to make his birthday adventures, I really wanted to but some business called. We'll make it up to him when he gets himself down here to Costa Rica.

    Smoke and Mirrors

    Dropped by early, grabbed some tasty food, but then we headed out to South Beach.

    Pyjama Party

    Got to this South Beach club and had a pretty good time. Wasn't overcrowded or too hot, so that made it a lot better. Had some drinks, talked to a bunch of people, then some of us decided to go to China White, to meet the owner/manager and everyone before our party the next night.

    China White - unofficial partying

    Club was very very nice decor wise, with some good music playing. The owner was extremely friendly as was most of the staff (of course that may be because of the cash put in, but who knows ;p)...we did some shots and more drinkingthe few of us left headed back to the hotel.


    Saturday

    MVC Dinner

    Great food, good people on our table. Thanks to MVC for the invite, their dinners always rock! Hopefully we returned the favor last night here in CR for two of them atleast

    Webmaster Insomnia

    The party got crazy packed....Myself, I mostly hung at the outside bar upstairs since it was a bit more spacious. Big thanks to Princess Ellisa for putting it all together, definately one of the better parties we have been the main sponsor for

    To those who couldn't make it upstairs, I'd like to apologize...for the first couple of hours I was going up and down incase I spotted someone having trouble. Despite the overcrowding (we wanted 500 upstairs but got past 2000!) and the couple of fights at the end (not involving industry people atleast), I'd say it was a very successful party.

    We had a stop at DormBucks suite party which was cool to relax in for a bit, thanks Brett!

    Later it was back to the pool, where we hung around until 9am-ish...I then went to make a call to change my flight, I'm so happy I did too!


    Sunday

    Finished off the show, then as most of our team left for home, I headed over to the Porn Poker Tour suite. Had a blast there for most fo the day and night, especially since I wasn't able to play in the tournament because I was busy at our booth, I enjoyed this room. Thanks to all its sponsors and everyone that we played with, like: CCBill Andy, bdjuf, Rich, Mitch and Sara, DG's Allen, his gf Bo, Greg, Dan...the list goes on and on (I guess a lot of people ended up playing!)

    We interrupted our playing for a bit to head down to Hard Rock for dinner...pretty tasty food, that filled us up nicely.

    Hung out in the pool some more until who knows what time in the morning, nice chatting with those of you left around in the hot tub.

    There are some more things I know I'm missing, like the Bikini Contest (I saw some of it), late-night hotel wandering, etc...

    I won't name personal shout-outs because from this show, that list would be wayyyyyyyyyy too long; but if you spoke with me for more than a few seconds, or you partied with me, then know you are on that list

    Ok, now back to work this post is already getting too long
