We are heading to the Sin City for the first ever Blog World & New Media Expo. It should be a very interesting and fun event. I’m looking forward to meeting many fellow blogger like Zac Johnson, Shoemoney, Gary Lee, Ms Danielle, Greg Morgan, Nate Whitehill plus many others.
Blog World doesn’t officially start until tomorrow so I’m going to take Sarah to see KÀ at the MGM Grand tonight. I’ve been meaning to catch this Cirque du Soleil show for a long time. However, they were never playing when I was in Vegas. I’m really looking forward to comparing it to the other Cirque du Soleil shows.
If you’re at Blog World and you see a 6′ 2″ Asian dude wearing a VisionTek T shirt, be sure to say hello. I might be wearing a Shoemoney shirt once Shoe gives me one. I’ll be having dinner with the Shoe on Friday. Hopefully, I’ll find out how he cheated beat me in the RSS competition.
See you in Las Vegas!

One of the most common complaint (or excuse) I hear from potential new bloggers is they don’t know how to install WordPress. Terms like FTP and CPanel are like a foreign language and setting up a database might as well be setting up the space shuttle for a launch. Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...

Have fun, John! I’m looking forward to plenty of insider gossip, photos and videos.
Keep us updated on what happens John. And you are 6’2″ for being an Asian, I am an Asian as well but I am only 5’4″. I didn’t know Asian could get that tall but again Yao Ming is huge
Yeah and make sure to find out how the heck Shoe bit you in that contest
Be interesting to see how Shoe got all those readers and pretty darn quick. Have fun and let us know how you get on.
Nice while I’m flying to the World Internet Summit tomorrow. Can’t wait to be there, anyway i’m having a little contest on my blog with 500$ cash prizes. ^^ Bloggers-Journey.com
It’s so funny and ironic to see you,the moneymaking and SEO “specialist” dropped out of Google!
Have fun up there John, must find out about shoe jugling with numbers, keen to know, …Enjoy !!!
and post how he did it
Haha, John, let us know how he did it. It really was quite an amazing comeback. I am also a short asian. 5′ 6″. I don’t know what you did, but it must have helped you in the blog world.
DARN and I was supposed to be there…
jeff you’re not going. what happened.. danielle and gary have been talkin about meeting with you.
Cool.
You should hook up for coffee with Steve Pavlina while you’re there.
Er, make that a herbal tea!
He gave up coffee.
Are you going to subscribe to Shoe’s RSS once you get a free shirt?
Hey John, I’ll see ya here (I’m in the B5 Media event today)…free add-on day.
Awesome John. Win some money on the tables and make sure to post how Shoe did with the RSS.
I might be wearing a Shoemoney shirt once Shoe gives me one. I’ll be having dinner with the Shoe on Friday. Hopefully, I’ll find out how he cheated beat me in the RSS competition.
See you in Las Vegas!
–John, are you sure that Shoe is cheating on you? I always wonder how in the last minutes he can pull out the crowd to beat you by numbers !!??
Looks cool… too late to make it this year, mebbe next.
Can’t wait to hear about the RSS
cheat…method.Have fun – not TOO much fun! If you haven’t tried it, the chocolate tarte at Paris Hotel (there’s a tarte place between Paris & Bally’s) is to frickin die for.
Wow, blog world sounds like a lot of fun. Wish I could be there.
Have fun John.

If only this was another 4 weeks later, I’m heading out there on the 7th December!
I saw the Cirque Du Soleil show when it was here in Vancouver. Its awesome!
If you do go and they have their water show (think they still do). I heard it is one of the best ones yet!
Hey John, have fun! It would be interesting meeting all of those bloggers! Jeeze, now I wished I would have gone! Well maybe next year…
I might see you there too John! I’m flying out tomorrow with the girlfriend.
Sounds cool a bunch of bloggers hanging out together wearing each other’s shirts…
Click for Nick –
Yep…
I’ve never been to vegas and always have wanted to go. I would probably lose all my money anyway, so I guess it is a good thing I haven’t gone
Have a great time John. Hopefully I’ll get the chance to go to one of these events next year when I’m making more money!
Sounds like a fun event. Plenty of photos please.
Hey John, this comment doesn’t really have to do with your update, I was just wondering what host do you use? My site is approaching its bandwidth limit and I need a new host.
Commenting from Vegas Now… looking forwar to meeting up with everyone.
Wow! So much to see, so little time. I wonder, do they still have the lions display at the MGM Grand?
Have a great time.
You need to take Sarah to the Thunder From Down Under all male review show!
Take lots of pictures!!!
Hey next time you’re planning on Vegas let me know I own a luxury condo at the MGM Grand I could have given you 30% off! Have fun though!
hey.. have fun watching KA. I’ll see you at my booth.
Don’t you meet Greg Morgan every Saturday at Dot Com Pho?
Have fun. Don’t forget to pick up the floor plan for the Caesars Palace Absolute Vodka Suite for our party!
Now that I think about it, i really want to go since it’s a great networking opportunity!
Good luck on your trip to Vagas. Just Make sure you’re not tempted to gamble last month’s earning away at a casino.
Correction: You will be wearing the shirt when he gives you one
Have a blast! this one is touted to be the do where you get to party like a search engine rockstar, according to Nate Whitehill.
You did nice restaurant review a couple of weeks back. Lets have some feedback on the food in Vegas
Cirque du Soleil is well worth the effort. It’s very inspiring an I’m sure you’ll enjoy it. I’m a punk rock/sports (baseball) fan and my big shows this year were Smashing Pumpkins in Philly on Oct 23, the Police at Hershey Park on Jul 20. The best show I saw this year was TOOL at the Soverign Center in Reading, PA. If you like Cirque du Soleil you might consider making an effort to go see the “Blue Man Group”. I caught them in Orlando last year. It’s nice to live 6 months in Delaware and 6 months (the winter) in Daytona Beach, FL.
I’d love to attend that event in Vegas, but my monthly travel budget for November has already been allocated to go see Pelican and High on Fire in Barcelona, Spain on 11/30. Of course that involves the obligatory side-trip to Amsterdam. Priorities…. even though I’m a musician but an ex-IBM C++ programmer by trade, I just can’t get into the “internet convention” stuff but maybe I’ll make an effort at some point to meet the true internet “ROCK STAR” seo, affiliate marketer Mr. John Chow in person.
Enjoy yourself there, John.
I wonder how many people are attending the convention…
