No Red at NAB 2009

There's a world of difference between pointing out an observation, and "rallying" for it. I said that in an internet world, trade shows are dying off. That's been my observation. Doesn't mean I'm happy about it, or sad about it, it's just an observation. I don't think a megalithic show like NAB will continue much longer. I said 5 years, Ted thinks it'll last longer, maybe 10, but it's on its way out.

I just don't think its wise to rally for the demise of tradeshows, they have their place, just as the internet has it's place

DanHD, I don't think anyone is rallying for it's demise. Let's hope not. :)

Barry, If there is a NAB 2014 you owe me a beer. If not, I owe you one. I'm sure we both hope I win. And if not, good luck finding me! :beer:
 
it is true that many companies do not want to participate in trade shows anymore. isn't there some tax on going these days that make it difficult for smaller companies to justify the expense? in this type of economy i could see why trade shows would end up on the cutting room floor if those in charge thought they could get their message out without spending the time and effort on something that might or might not gain interest.
 
RED will be in Vegas though, and will be at the REDuser party showing off non-working prototypes of scarlet and epic.

it's not too late to RSVP for the reduser party if you are going to be there.

later,
jason
