IAAPA Trade Show Ambassador

Has anybody ever done this? I just applied online for the show in November and I wanted to hear some feedback from someone who's done it before. Any help would be great!

Ambassador to what?

sounds interesting.

Wow, that's a pretty cool program. Trade shows can always use a fair bit of slave labor too. ;)

---

We all can't speak at IAAPA, Jeff. ;)

---

Hate to bring a topic back from the dead, but I just wanted to announce that I was hired for this program. Woohoo! :)

Good, if you find me, you get the free beer.

Don't think I won't be looking!

Find me for free pancakes! (Sorry...couldn't resist :) )

Seriously...congrats! Sounds pretty cool!

Maybe I'll look for Jeff while I'm at it too!

-Josh, glad he outgrew his CPNut stalking days...

If you find me, you get the pleasure of seeing my presentation. I know, pretty hard to resist, right?

---

What are you presenting?

Leave it to Peabody to spot Pancake Boy! :)

*chuckles* I think Ambassador sounds much better than Gopher...as in "go for...." which is what they are called at Science Fiction conventions.

---

Actually, I'm not even sure if I'm going to be doing it now, because someone screwed up and I'm not technically on the schedule. I'm registered speaker without a time slot. We'll see what happens.

Go to the online schedule planner...

A couple of hours ago I was in there with no session associated with my name. Now I'm in there twice, and it's the wrong day. It should be Thursday, unless I can do it from Ohio. :)

Eric R. you're doing it again? Awesome bro, so am I!!! Roomies again?

about the show-it is a good experience. Great for a resume, and the contacts you make are awesome!!! I did the program in 05, and I've been to IAAPA 3 separate times. It's awesome everyyear, much better in orlando though. The only reason I didn't do it in 06 was because in 05 a professor screwed me on a grade (long story), and I didn't want it to happen again. *** Edited 9/21/2007 12:09:17 AM UTC by Turbo***

Based on Jeff's situation...it sounds as if the show may need more than a few Ambassadors.

Good luck Jeff!
