Hi y’all,

Since John reviewed our site couple days ago and I found out he was going to be at AdTech, I figured there would be a good chance of running into him and thanking him for the review. I also made up some quick questions to find out “secrets” behind John Chow’s success and to seek advice for monetizing SiteHoppin.com.

Plus, AdTech was great, I didn’t know there were hundreds of advertising/publisher programs. I might go there tomorrow again to actually find some new ways to monetize our site so and maybe do couple more video interviews with more bloggers.

You know what John is saying while taking this picture? (He says “Evil” instead of “Cheers.)

Yup, we had to take a picture together, tryin’ to be more evil than he is…

Another worst kept secret behind AdTech, held at Moscone Center? Metreon, an entertainment center with fine dining and theators, is on the backside of the Moscone Center. (Just walk to the back of it where there’s a big park)

I was there today to eat lunch at Firewood Cafe and surprised that not that many people from the show were there. (Next time, I highly suggest the pizza from Firewood Cafe, it’s really good (almost authentic Italian pizza).

In John Chow style, I took a picture, don’t get joulous! This is the best pizza I’ve had since I was in Rome, Italy 5 years ago. I had to gulp it down in about 5 minutes as John Chow promised me an interview at 2PM, I started eating around 1:50PM.

Cheers everybody as I had to undergo serious hangovers from last night AND I was sober throughout the show. I just talked to my dad today and he wants me to stop drinking so much. Errr…maybe I will drink a little bit less.
