I'm Baaaaaaaack ...

I am mortified that it's been nearly two weeks since I updated here, but things were a total buzzsaw around the office over that time and as 15-hour day rolled into 15-hour day, and the calendar ticked down to departure to New York, there just wasn't the opportunity to get this done.

And, it's not for lack of news. Several times I'd even made a point of grabbing in-world snapshots to post, but never got around to being able to write anything up.

Anyway, here's a virtual version of our booth at the Virtual Worlds conference ... with Eschatos manning the same side that I, your 'umble narrator, did at the Javits Center.



Now, this isn't quite exactly like the booth ... which was bigger, and had tables with schwag piled high (I need to share pics of our goodies ... we did coffee mugs, cool little LCD clocks {"time for SlippCat"}, mousepads {"a whole new cat & mouse game"}, post-it pads, and colorful imprinted pens), along with lots and lots of info kits.

Between the "teaser" SlippCat web site (which, unfortunately, still has the teaser up instead of the "proto site" which will be there later in the week) and our "Gold Sponsorship" of the conference, and our Big Huge Booth (almost everybody else was "pipe and drape"), we certainly achieved the attention that we were looking for at the convention!

Unfortunately while we were out of town, our former Head Builder (who had quit in a major hissy fit a month or so back) decided that she was going to "ruin our show" by attacking our island ... which caused us huge amounts of hassle, but little actual harm as we were doing only a few "live" things. I suspect that this little battle is going to get uglier before it gets settled, but when you start getting noticed, it brings out the trolls!

More later ...
