MEDC Update

I'm flying out to http://www.medc2006.com/ early Tuesday morning.  Last week when I went to Atlanta, i left about 4:00 AM and the trip was awful. The worst radio time in the world is the time in between 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM. They were having some satellite troubles so I could only get Lex and Terry for 20 minutes (to describe their show as stupid would be an understatement, to describe listening to them as excrutiating would be an even bigger understatement). Unimportant air time is when all the Public service announcements happen and I swear, if something is "Brought to you by the Ad Council", it's a sure sign that whatever 'it' is will be totally stupid.  Anyway, I sat in traffic for forever.  I don't know which city has worse traffic, Atlanta or Seattle, but I don't recall ever hitting traffic in Seattle at 6:30 AM.  I'm flying out of Hartsfield on Tuesday at 8:00 AM, so if I leave by 2:00 AM, I should be able to get there and get through security in a timely manner.

Scheduled to arrive in Vegas at 11:15 AM.  They have us staying at http://www.venetian.com/ which looks pretty cool. I haven't been to Vegas before in any real sense. I've flown through, been there for a few hours on business, but never got to really hang out. Gambling is one compulsive behavior I fortunately don't have but looks like there's plenty to do otherwise. I'll be blogging MEDC live [I'll be working at the conference on Tuesday and Wednesday] and should have some cool pictures and technology updates. Should finally be able to pick up a new Motorola Q  and I'm sure there will be some other killer gadgets out there. Drop me a line if you're going to be there...
