Demo and Party

I happened to attended the demo. I must agree that the entertainment was pretty bad, although by the looks on the faces of some of the management I don't think they were getting what they thought they were paying for. The entertainer was introduced as a manager or director or something which after a few minutes in to the act blew me away! I asked someone later about that and was told that no, she didn't work for the company. They should have gone out of their way to make sure that everyone understood that was not an employee. On the other hand, I didn't go there to see card tricks, I did go to see the new Internet tracking they have. I think that is cool. They have a demo site you can get to from their main page. I like it. I think they may have something here, if they can sell it properly. They need to brighten up the map site to match the new web page for the company which is also pretty cool. The only problem with the new page is it is slow for dial-ups. Try putting up a non flash version on the site for those of us with slow connections.
