On Monday and Tuesday during ad:tech New York, the exhibit hall was filled with activity. Every last square inch of available space inside the Hilton had been converted to booth space for the final appearance of ad:tech in the Hilton. Yes, the conference will continue. It’s just moving to the Javits Center next year so everyone wil have some vreathing room as they traverse the exhibit hall floor.
ad:tech blogger Andrew Paradies strolled the floor and took several shots of exhibitors booths on Monday and Tuesday. Check out Andrew’s photo album here and see who you recognize. And here’s another album from Steve Hall.

In terms of booth schwag at New York’s ad:tech, there wasn’t much that stood out. There were pens and pens and pens and more pens. There were matchbooks. There were hats, cups and mints. There were stress balls, pins and badges. A few, however, rose above the toss-in-the-nearest-trash-can category. Ifbyphone had yo-yos. Anchor had shot glasses.And Batanga had miniature stereo speakers which could plug into an iPod or other musical device.
The best, though, and the winner of this year’s Booth Schwag Award goes to elitecommission for hiring a custom cigar maker who sat at the booth and rolled fatties (well, not that kind) for attendees. Clearly, not your normal booth schwag.

In the ever escalating challenge to out do fellow booth mates at ad:tech, some companies don’t fool around with cheap plastic pens or useless stress balls. No. Some, like elite commission, offer those who visit their booth hand-rolled cigars. Not bad. Not bad at all.

If you are attending ad:tech, make sure you stop by the GoMobile exhibit on the 3rd floor of the Hilton. At this exhibit, you can check out what several companies are doing in the mobile space and, since it’s a growing segment, it’d be the smart thing for you to do.
