News n' Notes

Hi Vegas fans,

After a brief respite (well, not respite, really, as I was feverishly responding to questions about my book/website as a result of answering the Las Vegas Advisor Question of the Day on July 3rd... more on that in a minute), I'm back.

In the "News" department, look for the Bodies and Titanic exhibits to move from the Tropicana to the Luxor in early August. The Luxor has a press release about the Bodies exhibit, and I'm sure they'll have one soon about Titanic, too.
Ticket prices at the Tropicana are currently $31 for Bodies and $27 for Titanic. Both shows are open 10 am to 10 pm.

In the "Notes" department, I was really proud and honored to answer a Question of the Day on the Las Vegas Advisor. For those of you who don't know, the QoD is a great, free feature of the LVA, which is an awesome website that has everything from soup to nuts about Vegas. The QoD changes every day, and every week they also have a new reader poll. The July 3rd QoD was about sports and sporting venues, and I provided some links and info regarding the city's best bets and the most popular events.

The response was terrific. First, a lot of people wrote to the LVA and commented, and some mentioned that I left out a few things. As a result, I updated my response, and it will be posted as another QoD later this month. Stay tuned.

Second, I had a lot more traffic on the website that day, of course, and a bunch of folks filled out the Questionnaire for a Free Itinerary. I personalize these itineraries, and so this took me a little while. Of course, I was happy to do it and will continue to do it for anyone who submits the form on the website. I was also fortunate enough to sell a few books (PDFs from the website), which was cool. And more Kindle owners are looking at SLV on Amazon.com, too. Very cool!

I'm so excited about the website, the blog, the book(s), and all things Vegas. I'm definitely getting more interest... but still not as much feedback as I'd like. Here's where you come in!! Please comment on the blog, fill out the survey regarding the website, or talk about anything regarding Las Vegas. If you don't want to do it in a public forum, feel free to email me. I encourage all comments, criticisms, complaints, etc., so please send me your thoughts. I'm all ears.

Thanks and have a great week!

Viva,
Mike
