Expocomm Argentina 2005 There is a picture of a rack, howeverHERE IS my advice if you ever intend to visit Expocomm down South: avoid the last day.
Vendors are tired, it's a Friday so the booth babes want to go home - or go out - and there's a rush of people who go at the last minute "just not to miss the event".
But also on the last day, you see things that you don't see for the first three days, as happened to me this year. I have vague memories of the last day of Expocomm but I think it all started when the folks at the Nextel booth started serving free drinks - champagne - to everyone who passed by.
This created a flurry of activity as passers by INQUIRED: ""where did you get that from?" for instance.
Free drinks!. Suddenly, everyone was happy
...and gradually losing interest in tech
After about half an hour of champagne freely flowing, the best things start to happen... like seeing a few "happy", but not drunk, vendors having trouble explaining a product's features, a visitor tripping and landing with his head only inches from my feet, or the folks at Tecnovoz bringing in a pair of Brazilian female dancers and the whole shebang of male drum players. At that point a floor section turned into a
Scola do Samba.
That was the exact point the whole exhibition
derailed and turned into a giant party, with everyone around it forgetting what it was supposedly all about. Don't believe me? I recorded a
short video. [How come this doesn't work? Ed.]
But now the really important stuff you've been waiting for: the booth babes...
