Me & my wife were looking at hitting Internext Florida up (we are in NW Florida) and actually have the time off from our full time jobs that week to head down. Atlanta would be close as well, but without any idea of what kind of conferences there will be, that is still out to decide. But at this point, it is completely undecided.

We love Vegas, and have thought about heading out there when conferences have been held, but still never made it during a show.

But at this time, we have no set plans to attend any of the shows. Just watching the few that are close and trying to decide whether to give it a shot or not.
Can't be easy to make it to shows if they are mid-week - that I agree if you have a full-time job outside of the industry.

Probably a weekend show would be good - or one that falls during one of your local holidays. Take an extra day off + the weekend and you should be good. One warning though - make sure you have a day to rest after you're back.

You should at least make it to one show - it DOES make a difference in terms of broadening up ideas for you.
