Well, that was a great vacation! Check out some of the new pics in my Flickr account. I played golf, did some gyming, lots of family time and most importantly, lots of gaming! Anyway, vacation is over now – and my week has already been a bit hectic. I’m in Johannesburg at the moment and will be leaving for San Francisco this weekend for the Linkshare Summit & thereafter to Las Vegas for Affiliate Summit (where I’ll be speaking on a panel). If you’re looking at meeting up with me and my team at these conferences, please drop me a line at vlingham”@”gmail.com (ignore “s).
