			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DDL:08 was a good experience for us &#8211; it was the first time we ever had a booth (though we have sponsored other events), and it was a good experience (more on that later).</p>
<p>Right now though I want to point out to a bonafide ass.</p>
<p>Part of our sponsorship was us sponsoring a Cyber Cafe. At the conference they have two sets of three computers connected to the internet. Two companies sponsor the cyber cafe, setting the homepage on the computer to a site specified by the sponsor. As such, three of the computers were set to <a href="http://www.ibegin.com/">www.ibegin.com</a> and the other three were set to <a href="http://www.homes.com/">www.homes.com</a>.</p>
<p>We noticed this earlier on, and it happened non-stop &#8211; some ass kept going over to the six computers and kept setting www.bizclip.com/portfolio/ as his homepage. And by non-stop I mean he would come by every 30 minutes to do this.</p>
<p>I never actually saw the bugger doing this as I was too busy to wait to catch him, but quite a few people let me know what was going on, including one of our employees.</p>
<p>I can only imagine the kind of service and product you would receive from someone who would stoop to such a level. Consider yourself warned.</p>
<p><b>Update:</b> I should note that quite a few people did this. This one particular individual did it multiple times. At the same time &#8211; other than human decency I cannot imagine a way to &#8216;solve&#8217; this kind of behavior. Timers, perma-frames, etc &#8211; they all have drawbacks. So really nothing Kelsey nor we can do about it.</p>
