Blogworld’s opening night party was held a Liquid, which I assume is a cool club at the new Aria Hotel… but I will never know.
Security henchman outside the club checked ID’s of attendees and when I let them know that I had left mine some miles away in my valeted car, I smiled and asked that they look at my face and hair and guess if I was old enough to get into the club. Besides, I don’t drink and did not intend to order anything tonight.
Evidenced by this recent photo, there should be no mistake about my age. There likely is some rule or law involved.. if so, it’s not a helpful one.
I suppose I could take it as a compliment.. looking so young to them.
No loss for me not getting into this club. I may have done a review stating how neato the design was, but instead I’m saying it was a bad experience that left me less impressed with MGM and mega resorts in general.
In the spirit of Blogworld and lessons in social media, I had to post this and add my voice to the idea that we might be trying to hard to secure ourselves and in the process, deny us liberties in the process.
It was all coming together nicely.
I’m at Blogworld Expo to get blogger input on what makes for Profitable Social Media and saw a opportunity to make a lot of videos I could share with you here.
Plus, my friend Scott Stratten was holding a pre-Blogworld Tweetup with hundreds of these bloggers celebrating the release of the book and their first night in Vegas.
Here’s how the live broadcast turned out.

In addition to the title character tweeting and blogging, Vancouver Opera using QR codes on posters around Vancouver to promote the opera. You scan the code (the one to the right in fact) you go to the Vancouver Opera website, but the codes on the posters will lead you to behind the scenes looks at the making of this tremendous new opera. read more
