Somehow the E for All Event, a public game exhibition, flew under the radar of most publications this past weekend, operating very much on the down-low. Despite such a low-key function, the expo was able to attract 15 000 attendees over the weekend, which Chief Executive Officer of IDG World Expo, Mary Dolaher, calls “a true success.” Dolaher said:“E for All 2008 was all about connecting gre
Veterans of previous Great American Beer Festivals will tell you that if they were going to skip one of the four sessions it would be the Saturday night finale. Why? By that point festival fatigue has set in and most people have tired palates and tired legs. The idea of nearly 2,000 great beers in one place has started to lose its allure, especially when you consider that supplies of many of the g
