MIX08 in Las Vegas is almost sold out. I am starting to look forward to seeing all the sessions and meeting everyone coming out to attend that I know. There are also some fun things going on at MIX this year. One that looks interesting is the following (clipped):

 

"The King of Kong's" Steve Wiebe attempts to reclaim his title at MIX08clip_image001

Join middle-school science teacher, Steve Wiebe, on the evening of Tuesday, March 4th for a special MIX screening of New Line Cinema's "The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters.”   The movie, featuring Steve Wiebe and Billy Mitchell’s quest to see who is the true King of Kong, will be followed by a Q&A session with Steve, producer Ed Cunningham, and Twin Galaxies referee Walter Day. Then, on Wednesday, March 5th, watch Steve try to recapture his world record at the MIX attendee party at TAO!

 

I'll be honest, when I saw the trailers for the movie I wasn't totally captivated, but it should be fun to see it live. I mean, Donkey Kong? Galaxian was my speed.

Anyhow, if you are going to be there, and for some odd reason happen to be reading my blog, drop me a note and let's hook up. Cheers.
