Among the cool attractions at any tradeshow, there is one constant that draws people to the booth — a comfortable couch. So, after I got some information from NetGear on their award-winning routers and their storage solutions and their multi-media boxes for HD entertainment. I sampled their cushy chairs, and was just about to use their wireless network … when someone asked me to move.
Ha. I thought, “Man, you people just don’t care about us bloggers. I am sitting at ground zero of your exhibit and saying good things about you … and you’re throwing me out?
Well … it seems the woman wasn’t actually a NetGear staffer — and she gave me a t-shirt to ease the pain. She was a member of a comedy improv group that was about to start the show. Guess who was sitting in the couch on stage. Oops!
Hey, you, off of my couch
I negotiated for another t-shirt and then moved my big ol’ arse so the show could begin. Funny … before the show I wondered why no one else was sitting on the counches … and I noticed the lights were a bit bright for my taste. But, I put my feet up on the coffee table and blogged anyway … The show is over know … and I am back … in their living room … until the improv team comes back to sing about wireless routers.
