OMG, I'm connected to the Internet! Hurray!!!!

Imagine being an Internet marketer at an affiliate marketing conference and not having an Internet connection from your hotel room for 5 days.

Are you feeling my pain? 🙂

Yup, despite paying $12.95 twice and $9.95 once, the Lodgenet service at the Rio was pathetic.

Despite spending more than an hour on the phone with Lodgenet and having the ticket escalated to Level 3, the connection speed was never more than 2Kbps. I even changed rooms hoping to access the wireless that some folks reporting picking up, but I had no such luck.

Fortunately, Twitter is a light load, so I logged on a couple of times to tweet, but the connection was never sufficient to log into the Administration panel of my blog.

UGH.

Anyway, now at McCarran International Airport with 5-bar FREE wireless and dancing for joy at having just uploaded my Affiliate Summit West '09 conference pictures.

Woohoo!
