Guitar Hero II to Provide Entertainment During Chicago ad:tech Show

guitar_hero2.jpg

Now this ought to be good. If you were even remotely considering attending the ad:tech conference at Navy Pier in Chicago July 31-August 1, there’s something that just might solidify the decision for you. We’ve all been to various industry events and parties where, for whatever reason, co-workers eventually find themselves on some stage doing some strange thing providing endless humor and enjoyment for everyone in attendance. And, no, we’re not talking about Arnold’s Boston office pole dancing at a recent Christmas party. Though it might be interesting to see what all the booths babes would do if a giant pole appeared in the middle of the exhibit hall floor.

Anyway, there will be no poles at this event apart from the ones holding up booths and Navy Pier itself. But there will be Guitar Hero II set up at the WebTrends-sponsored cafe in the center of the exhibit hall floor for attendees to provide endless entertainment for their co-workers. OK so it’s only a video game but WebTrends is giving away two Xbox 360s so if you need another distraction from all those people telling you how Harry Potter ends, this just might be the thing for you. Angela and I will be there. Will you?

Received Pronunciation, the accent linguists still nickname the Queen’s English, took shape inside a handful of England’s most expensive private schools, and it remains such a reliable marker of that background that a stranger can often place someone’s education within a single sentence.
