Another Connecticon has come and gone and I must say, I think that this was the best one yet! There was a lot more room with the dealer room and the artist colony moved downstairs, opening the whole upstairs to events and panels! I think that this was a great idea and I hope that they utilize the space a lot more next year. On top of everything else, this was the second time that Millionaire Geeks has made an appearance at a convention! Mr.J and I got to meet a whole slew of wonderful geeks who seemed more than eager to take advantage of the resources we have to offer here on our site! We hope to see our efforts reflected in the number of people signing up for our newsletter. If you’re reading this and haven’t signed up yet I highly suggest that you do as we are going to be sending out our first official issue at the end of this month!
So with that being said, there were many pictures taken on our journey and we would like to share them with you. Read on to see!
