Vegas Baby, Vegas!

I’m off to Las Vegas for Domain Madness.

Keeping up with all domain news it tough work. Here’s a case in point on how I’m taking one for the team. You know, sacrificing.

So on Friday Adam Strong of Domain Consultant sends me an e-mail to tell me about the live version of Tuesday’s Domain Madness auction. Man, so you mean I have to go to Vegas for the event to cover it? And stay at the rinky-dink Palms hotel? What a sacrifice. I guess I need to do it for my readers, though.

I’m going to suck it up and head over to Vegas to cover the event. It’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it.

I figure the good people of Las Vegas need all the tourist dollars they can get. I’m charitable. Yeah, so it’s only about $100 a night for a room at The Palms. And even at the last minute my flight is only $230. But every bit helps.

If you’re heading to Vegas for the auction finale I look forward to seeing you. Otherwise, stay tuned for my updates.

    I have had a blast in my many visits to Vegas. Priceline has been good to me in getting rooms at the Venetian for under a $100 bucks!

    Nothing like playing the tables all night having cold ones and walking outside and seeing thats its sunny outside and ya have been up all night gambling!

    Have fun!

    Yeah, I know what you mean Andrew… I’m having to sacrifice as well, so I guess I’ll be seeing you in Vegas tomorrow. Man, the things we do in the name of business… I just hope that we can find a way to have at least a little bit of fun while we’re out there ;-)
