Yes, we are many things now - a sports conference, a novel, a George Clooney movie, an online magazine, a comic book, a bronze sculpture, an Angie Aparo album....

Soooo many things.

Yes, although it's generally more effective if you're an exterminator or a towing company.

Yawn. Nothing more than a bitter consolation prize - still not ready for prime time apparently.

It's not "Steve" but it's okay as a conference name.
