OK Here goes...
I dont doubt that this show might have some value to someone... even though I struggle to think who ! Maybe if you want to open up some sort of affiliated site selling Dildo's... or selling DVD's... but even so if that was me (which it isnt) then this show would of been a waste of time still !
I spent a grand total of 51 minutes of my life at this show, as someone in another post said, "I been once I will never go again !" I will never get that 51 minutes of my life back, well infact the 3 hours if you factor in travelling time !
The highlight of the show for me was the chicken tikka and chips in the cafe... which took roughly 20 minutes of that time... I walked the show floor I would guess 4 or 5 times in the remaining 31 minutes !!! The wear on my now famous pink trainers taking it's toll !
I wonder what cost there is on the stands people have to exhibite their goods, and if there really is business to be done to warrent that expense ? Everything I saw there today can be gladly found online, a email could be as effective as the face to face option...
I now conceed that we do not have a decent show in the UK... I think in future I will stay in front of my computer in my underpants conducting business... networking is so much more comfortable that way... and snow patrol I would suggest using the ticket as a tooth pick, breaking off little bits of the ticket to pick ones teeth seems a much more beneficial and profitable use of it !
