Computex 2008 - Do You Like Beautiful Girls?
I’ve just finished uploading my booth babe pictures to the TTZ Gallery. You can check them out here and see the other 2008 Computex galleries here.
Booth babes and trade shows seem to go hand in hand. It’s a know fact that one of the best ways to get traffic to your site is to post some photos of beautiful girls. After all, everyone likes beautiful girls.
Beautiful girls are also a great way to attract traffic to your booth. The Computex show in Taipei uses booth babes for more than just eye candy. Some are expected to do a lot more than just stand around and get their picture taken by female deprived tech geeks. The booth babes used by Computex can be divided into four distinct working groups.
Group 1 - The Floor Babe
This is the booth babe show goers of normal trade shows are familiar with. She stand around the company booth handing out company PR material. If you ask her to, she will gladly pose for a photo or have a photo taken with you.
At Computex, the products comes first. When you take a picture of a Computex floor babe, she will always hold out the product in front of the camera. If she is holding PR material, she will make sure it gets into the picture as well. She will also try to give you the PR stuff as well.
Group 2 - Roaming Floor Babes
Unlike other trade shows, the booth babes at Computex are allowed to roam the floor in order to get attendees to visit their booth. They go out in group of two or more, holding signs that ask people to visit their booth. Many times, the girls are sent into a competitor’s booth to try and distract their demos.
Group 3 - The Demo Babe
The demo babe is generally the highest paid booth babe, making as much as $400 USD per day for a show like Computex. In addition to being eye candy, the demo babe has to present the company products during scheduled presentations. She needs to be able to speak both English and Chinese. She is often accompanied on stage by the floor babes, who will model the products.
Group 4 - Roaming Demo Team
Big companies like Intel and AMD maintain booth babe teams that will visit partner booths to give presentations. The team’s job is to attract attention for the partner booth. The girls will dance, give out prizes and just create a lot of action around them. This action generally attract the attention of roaming floor babes, who will come and try to tell the people to visit their booth.
Booth Babe Duels
For some strange reason, many companies at Computex schedule their demos at the same time as the booth next to them. This creates a booth babe duel as two demo teams try to out do each other. Most of the time, the battle ends in a draw. However, in the video below, the Thermaltake babes were clearly kicking the asses of the Hitachi girls.

These girls are nice but I prefer brunettes, they are hotter and nicer.
Reply to this commentSorry, but are you short of brunettes?))
Reply to this commentLook up, there so many of them!
The hottest one (the floor girl) is a brunette
Reply to this commentThey’d be more attractive if they spoke fluent English.
Reply to this commentI think you’re racist. They’re in their country and their beauty is not suppose to be measure by how good they can speak english.
Reply to this commentLol seriously Jacobson
Reply to this commentZing!
Reply to this commentThats a pretty racist comment there Chris

Reply to this commentJC,
I know u don’t do it without money ;D
Reply to this commentHow much money did u get from those girls for highlighting them here
I’m sure he did it for free, the appreciation of the hot girl from yesterday’s article gave him the encouragement to write a whole post about them, creating eye candy for the readers!
Reply to this commentKeep it up john!
The girl in the second picture is smoking hot, I need to visit China. Chinese girls surely are hot!
Reply to this commentThere are Chinese girls in the US too
Reply to this commentI don’t think Taiwanese would prefer to be called as Chinese…Can be sensitive…
Reply to this commentThese are nice girls,
Reply to this commentthey look so fresh
I will exchange some Romanian girls for some Chinese , just for a change , it`s always good
Reply to this commentThis is not a nice post & babes!!
Reply to this commentThis is “not” don’t you mean “it is”
Reply to this commentnice post & babes!!
Reply to this commentWow..its really a great job man.I am loving all babes.
Reply to this commentYeah, there doesn’t seem to be any of the usual complaints about being off topic for this post.
Reply to this commentWow…wonder what your female readers will think? Maybe they’ll be down with the booth babes too. Where’s that Grace Cheng?
Reply to this commentI think that female readers will be envious)
Reply to this commentWhy should we be envious?
Reply to this commentWe got what they have too.
Thank you, Tyna. I doubt John’s female readers mind the booth-babe posts - ever been to CES in Vegas?
Yeah….
Reply to this commentFemale readers like looking at pictures of beautiful girls as much as male readers. If that was not the case, then women magazines like Cosmo would be filled with dude pics instead of hot women.
Reply to this commentWe look at Cosmo etc not because of the girls but to know the new trend in fashion,we just see them as models used by marketers.
all these comments for girls photos? 
Reply to this commentyou are right Tyna…
Reply to this commentThe floor babe has a lot of talent. She is the one you see first when you arrived, they probably took the cutest one for that spot!
Reply to this commentmmmmmm…so many asian girls…maybe some more fotos?)
Reply to this commentThe pictures and descriptions are nice, but the video is a little sad.
Reply to this commentWow..
I might have to change my preference to I Date Asian. Nice Job on the pics
Reply to this commentSexy~~~
Reply to this commentJohn,
Babes are over exploited! But love your pics
Reply to this commenthow doesn’t like beautiful girls?! Nice photos - seems to me like Asian Barbies.
Reply to this commentThis reminds me of a couple posts you wrote last year around this time. Seems like about the same text with different pictures
Reply to this commentNice work John. This will probably be a very viewed article. Sex sells, no question. Lets hear is for gratuitous advertising!
Reply to this commentGot to move to China. Nice girls - cheap market. All you can dream off
Reply to this commentthis is not in China…
Reply to this commentActually, it is. Just the other China.
Reply to this commentSo John–You consider Taiwan as China or other China??
How about Calling Canada as other America? Since you have been referring only America when you live in Canada…Or you meant to say Americas?
Reply to this commentWell, the hottest babe on these pictures is definitely girl from second picture for me. Nice pictures and video
Reply to this commentwell very beautiful girls… make me want to go to china…
Reply to this commentChina is not the only place full of “babes”
Reply to this commentI really really like your blog john.
Reply to this commentThe Hitachi girls should have won, they were handing out paper, while the Thermaltake girls were handing out hammers. Paper always beats hammer!
Reply to this commentYeah because wrapping a hammer in paper counts as beating it
Reply to this commentYeah, I’d say that women don’t mind seeing female-focused sites (maybe not AS much, John), but I think the comments might be a bit different! Hilarious!
Reply to this comment“Hatachi : 0″???? Near the end of the video.
Where did Hatachi came from?
Reply to this commentJohn, did you tell all the girls to check out JohnChow.com ?
Reply to this commentPerhaps they all would have told family and friends to check it out and drive more traffic to your site
Although, I’d really like to see their reaction to some of these comments
~Terry
yeah right–and once they come to this post and they would be like–what the heck–all these sick guys in this blog—-:)
Reply to this commentRoaming Floor Babes, now that’s a new one.
Reply to this commentI must say, as a long-time reader here, I feel a bit duped by the lack of any useful content on this blog. I guess the irony here is that Cow is now producing far better posts. I hope that when you return from your vacation, John, that you will actually write something of value, rather than merely telling us about your “dot com lifestyle”.
Reply to this commentAngst much?
Reply to this commentDo you even know what angst means?
Reply to this commentAngst is a Germanic word for fear or anxiety. It is used in English to describe an intense feeling of emotional strife. In German, it is the fear of possible suffering and a behavior resulting from uncertainty and strain which is caused by pain, loss, and death. The term Angst distinguishes itself from the word Furcht (German for “fear”) in that Furcht usually refers to a material threat (arranged fear), while Angst is usually a nondirectional emotion. It is usually, but not always, associated with teenage angst, or confusion and anxiety within the self.
