What reason do they give a guy like me to go to a show? A guy whom just runs TGPs and Blogs and isn't a big fish in any way. In reality even if I did go to a show I really wouldn't want to talk to a bunch of affiliate reps anyway.

I mean really what can they do for me other than ask me to send traffic? If I went to a show, I'd want to talk to other webmasters not Reps to programs (sorry). Seems to me the topic is about webmasters not attending shows, so that's a catch 22 all over again.

Personally I've toyed with the idea of trying to put something together for the local webmasters in Central Florida. I'd love to see a simple once a month get together to talk biz and share ideas, maybe in Orlando so it's centrally located.

That's the kinda stuff I'm interested in, not glamor shows in Vegas.. yea would be fun but well, I think I already covered that.
