(above( Bido at TRAFFIC, image source) Conferences are all about energy and TRAFFIC still has that MAGIC going for it. The atmosphere is extremely friendly, the energy to “make deals” is there, and everyone, especially in this economical climate, is hungry for deals. For me, I really en...

I’m at the Hard Rock Hotel in Vegas with Bido COO Jarred Cohen and we’re watching the site, activity, and just discussing things. Two things to point out: 1. The interest gauge is extremely useful. Go over it, find the winning patterns, and you will see you can largely ignore the item...
