Affiliate Summit West 2012 Begins

Internet marketing event, Affiliate Summit West 2012 begins tomorrow, January 8 at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas, NV. As I went through the photos I took at ASW11 I was reminded at how impressed I was at how much Affiliate Summit had grown since my last visit in 2008. If there is any doubt about the success of this event, consider that this is the 19th consecutive show that they have sold out due to capacity. That is pretty impressive. Unfortunately, I committed to something that fell through, so I was too late to try and get out to Las …

Photos of the Challenge Cup at the Hilton

These photos are from the 2011 Baker to Vegas, 27th Annual Challenge Cup Relay festivities at the Hilton. The afternoon started off with Unofficial Results being posted and the adjustment of point calculations beginning. There were penalty assessments for various infractions, each being assigned a time deduction value. The scene outside reminded me of seeing a bunch of students gathered around the bulletin board to find their test scores. Various groups had booths raising funds and advertising. There were a couple celebrity sightings, ala Forrest Griffin, who was kind enough to pose for photos with fans. There was an awards …

Photos from the 27th Annual Challenge Cup Relay

This weekend was the 27th Annual Challenge Cup, Baker to Vegas Relay. Law enforcement personnel from around the world take part in this event which is a 120 mile run from Baker, CA to Pahrump, NV and then on to Las Vegas. From what I have seen and been told, there are about 6,000 runners involved. I do not know if you have ever driven this route, but while being a pretty drive, I can not imagine running for fun through this part of the desert. GotBaddog.com sponsored the Riverside Sheriff’s Correctional Unit team. It was their first time as …

Baker High School Fundraiser Photos

This weekend was the 27th Annual Challenge Cup Relay, Baker to Vegas 2011. Since I sponsored the Riverside Sheriff’s Office, Correctional Unit, Team 255 I decided to take a drive out to Death Valley and photograph the event. Many, if not all the teams started off by meeting at Baker High School. The students took advantage of this by having a fundraiser, with a pancake breakfast, bake sale, barbecued burgers and selling things like ice and trinkets. These photos were taken at Baker High School, in preparation for the Challenge Cup Relay. Back to Baker High Photos Back to Baker …

My first days of 2011 – Project365 photos

, , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

This has been an interesting year, thus far. I have been able to take a few nice motorcycle rides, spent some time with my honey, went to Las Vegas for close to a week and walked Buddy, a lot. Unfortunately, there were also a couple of technical issues that kept me from doing daily Project365 updates to GotBaddog, but I think I have gotten everything under control. I may not be religious about doing the updates, but at least I remember to take the photos. So, here is January 2011, Project365.

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 …

Photos from Tuesday at ASW11

Tuesday was the last day of the Internet marketing event, Affiliate Summit West 2011. Since the Affiliate Ball was held the prior evening, I was not surprised to see what seemed to be fewer people at the morning sessions and in the exhibit hall. Since it was my sixth day in Las Vegas I had to make it a short day, so things may have picked up in the afternoon. I did have the opportunity to talk with a few people that had never attended Affiliate Summit before, and other than one exhibitor that must have been having a bad …

Monday, I headed back over to the Wynn for day two of the Internet marketing event known as 2011 Affiliate Summit West (ASW11). As expected, the Exhibit Hall was packed as were the seminars. Although the ASW11 website said the show was sold out, I noticed that people were able to purchase tickets at the venue, which I think was a good thing. I do not know if all levels of passes were available at the door or not, but if one wanted to get into the exhibit hall, that seemed to be available.

Today was the first day that I was able to make it over to the Wynn for Affiliate Summit West, 2011. After picking up my pass I took a look at what will be the exhibit hall. It has been a couple of years since I attended Affiliate Summit, so my recollection may be a little hazy, but it appears that there are going to be plenty of vendors and exhibitors to keep everyone busy. I then went over to the meet market. The room was packed. I look forward to this show as it is pretty evident that Internet …

Another fine day in paradise

, , , , , , , , , , , , / 1 minute of reading /

Whenever I go away for a while, there is one thing I really look forward to upon arriving home. The weather. On my last day riding home from Sturgis I had to get up early so I could leave Las Vegas before it got too warm. The reason for this is that no matter how hot Las Vegas is, Baker and Barstow are probably going to be hotter. At least in the summer. It is exactly the opposite in the winter. Even though I left at 8:20 AM, the coolest temperatures I dealt with were in the upper 90’s, and …
