Hostingcon, the exhibition hall, and goodies

So there were enough complaints about the AC yesterday, that the convention center is more temperate today. Good news that some people consider ice boxes an uncomfortable environment.

The exhibition hall opened today and it was filled with people, goodies, and new ideas.  Microsoft, Parallels, and Google served as the traditional powerhouses but there were many other companies to take note of.  We met Ratepoint, ARIN, ICC, Limestone, DNA Mail, dotnetpanel, MailChannels, Parallels, and Drupal. We are excited that many agreed to be interviewed and we look forward to asking some tough, and fun, questions about their company, product and outlook on the industry.

We also met some hosting providers and will be expanding our selection soon.  Stay tuned because you will have some new options. Woot!

The day is about to close but on a fun note, there were neat prizes given away.  I received a Nerf toy (from MailChannels), a couple USB storage devices (ICC and Comodo), and may hopefully win a plasma tv.  Okay, that’s just a long shot, but who knows.  Oh! And I got a $2 bill…prize or souvenir?
