Not so Subtle Hints...

As you can see from my previous blog, I find the concept of pre-hyping an event with worthless blog entries as a total waste of time and frankly symptomatic of a belief that you're somehow more important than you are.

It's a kind of condescension to believe that people want to read 50 words full of nothing and a few tactically placed asterisks. So, it pains me a little to want to write about something I'm not really allowed to talk about that I'm going to be revealing very soon on BXB.

Basically, BXB's next event is a natural progression from a LAN party. It's an idea I've had bubbling away in my head for sometime and was waiting for the circumstances to be right to start organising it.

Right now, myself and the two partners I've brought together for the event, are waiting on a quote from the company we're hiring the hardware from for the latest event. Yes, it will have elements of previous LAN events but it's going to have a very exciting twist.

If you've been following the subtle (and not so subtle) hints I've dropped on BXB over the past few weeks then you should be able to figure out where it will be hosted and what it's going to feature. If you've not got them yet, you need to dig a little harder.

Working in the business arena is very frustrating as the media world tends to move a hell of a lot faster and no matter how much I put pressure on the partners to resolve the issues and move forward on the event - it still takes an incredible amount of patience.

What I will reveal though, is that this won't be our only event of the year. I hope to do another LAN event like last year and as I've already said I've been looking at changing the venue.

One such venue we've been looking at is the excellent National Space Centre in Leicester. I visited there recently with my girlfriend and enjoy the exhibition greatly! (I'm into space and black holes and stuff like that). It'd make a great venue but would be a slight change in pace as there's no bar!

Anyway, we've prepared everything from the new web pages, to the artwork to the press releases for our next event and the very second I get the OK from my partners I'll start advertising it! So keep your eyes on BXB!
