Evening Folks!!
When I asked the question tonight whether we should remain 1 show a year I was expecting everyone to clap and say yes. To my surprise there was silence. When I asked if folks would like to have a second TRAFFIC back in Las Vegas the crowd errupted in applause and hoots and hollers.
So it's a maybe. Right now I am absolutely spent. Can't even think of such things.
I want to congratulate this year's award winners in the 7th annual TRAFFIC Awards. Winners in RED. Congratulations to all winners and nominees. I am sure you will read more indepth coverage at DNJournal.com and TheDomains.com among others.

Keep up the great work Mr. Schwartz! Awesome people like you & Mr. Neu are leading the way while many others are sleeping and making no sense when they decide to wake up and open their traps! God Bless Always! In Jesus!

Well Rick, all the hard work has paid off for you and those involved and asking for another TRAFFIC back in Vegas, is the icing on the cake for you and the crew.
People have to also remember the world is struggling with debt at the moment and to have any good sales is really amazing, when money is tight for everyone.
WELL DONE

Having attended TRAFFIC Orlando in 2008 and Vegas in 2010 I’d say, bring back both locations! MCO is more easily accessible than FLL and right at the resorts. As for Vegas, it’s the ultimate conference location.

Putting together a big conference like this is a tremendous amount of work. Hats off to Rick and team.
Maybe consideration should be given to doing alternating years between Las Vegas and Miami.
