The 2012 Long Beach/Seal Beach Chocolate Blues is coming to Long Beach, CA on Wednesday, June 27th, 2012 from 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM. While this event has been running for nine years now, and happens in 40 cities across the United States, I think this is the first time that they have come to the Los Angeles/Orange County area. As such, this will be my first time attending and to make sure I attend, GotBaddog.com will be hosting the “Bloggers Circle” with my better half, Tanya of TanyaMartin.com and GeekGoodGirl.com. Having perused the testimonials on the Chocolate Blues website …

I am headed to APPNation III

, , , , , , / 2 minutes of reading /

I will be in San Francisco next week for APPNation III. This third APPNation Conference will be held November 30 through December 1, 2011 at The Concourse Exhibition Center which is part of the San Francisco Design Center, located at 635 8th Street, San Francisco, CA. I attended APPNation last April and found it to be quite valuable since we are just beginning to get involved in the mobile application market. AppNation Conference is a B2B trade show, specializing in the mobile application market. When I attended last April, the thing that impressed me the most was the non-stop action. …

It is National Doughnut Day

, , , , , , / 8 minutes of reading /

A couple of months ago I was going through Facebook and noticed the photo of what I would call a designer doughnut. Since I was only readily familiar with one establishment that sold “designer doughnuts,” I asked if my friend had ever visited Psycho Donuts. It was not an unreasonable question since they are located in Northern California as is he. It was not long before someone else joined the discussion and informed me that if I wanted a great doughnut, I had to visit Stan’s Donuts in Santa Clara. Eventually, my friend returned to the discussion and told me …

Next week, April 27 and 28, 2011, APPNation Conference SF will be held at the Moscone Center South in San Francisco, CA. This two day mobile marketing event looks to be jam packed with seminars, demonstrations and workshops. My main problem with attending this event is trying to decide which seminars I want to attend over the others. There are 21 seminars on the 27th and another 16 on the 28th. That does not even include the keynote, sessions and workshops that take place before lunch. A look at the scheduled speakers includes people from Google Mobile, Appstore for Android, …

GotBaddog will be at ad:tech San Francisco 2011

, , , / 2 minutes of reading /

Next week, the Internet Marketing event, ad:tech San Francisco 2011 will take place at the Moscone Center in the city of my birth, San Francisco, CA. I have talked with show organizers and have been given the green light to bring my camera in and cover the show. I have been coming to ad:tech since 2007, which I believe was in Chicago. The New York City show in 2008 was my first venture to NYC and I was very impressed with the size of the venue and the number of vendors/attendees. Soon after, the San Francisco show became even larger …

Affiliate Summit West 2011 Review

, , , , , , , , / 6 minutes of reading /

This is my review of the Internet marketing event known as Affiliate Summit West 2011, AKA ASW11. Affiliate Summit West was held January 9-11, 2011 at the Wynn in Las Vegas, NV. Due to scheduling conflicts, I had not attended Affiliate Summit since 2008 when it was held at the Rio. I was looking forward to this show to see how much things had changed over the last few years. Besides, in 2008 I only spent one day there and never ventured beyond the exhibit hall and a suite party. I usually cover B2B trade shows where I already know …

A relatively new topic I will be covering on GotBaddog.com is Internet marketing events. Tanya and I frequently attend events such as VidCon, Ad Tech and Search Engine Strategies. Since I changed the format of GotBaddog at the beginning of 2010 I do not have any photos up of prior events we attended, other than VidCon, but that is about to change. I will be attending Affiliate Summit West 2011 and the accompanying Affiliate Ball. Affiliate Summit West is a three day marketing conference that will be held at the Wynn Las Vegas from January 9-11, 2011. I have not …

How to get to Sleepy Hollow for Candy Cane Lane

, , , , , / 3 minutes of reading /

After my post showing the Christmas lights in the Sleepy Hollow section of Torrance, I have had several people contact me asking how to get there. Since there are a few streets blocked off to assist with the traffic flow, I will tell you the easiest way to get there. For those of you that live in the South Bay, you are probably already familiar with Candy Cane Lane, but if not, it is in the area of Torrance bordered by Pacific Coast Highway, Prospect, Calle Mayor and Palos Verdes Blvd. The area is a little more compact than that, …
