| There are lots of places to post: tea places, coffee houses, street light posts, Lucky 97, "Edmonton Online" ... and there's always bath houses. _Hahaha! |

| Bath houses is a great idea !!!!! That's the one I would have saw for sure : ) <p>^_^ |

| How about handing some flyers out at some the local events? I dunno which ones tho... |
|
|
| KingKiong |
Simple.
Just post posters in the Churchill Library (the downtown one). Many people, especially asian immigrants, take classes there and maybe they might just see the poster.<p>However, being allowed to post posters there is another thing... |

| Why don't you guys make a bunch of flyers or postcards and hand them out at the clubs or events. I could post someup for you guys at the U. |

hahaha yeah post shit up on EO!!! haha
but i dont think you want EO people to start coming to this site, then it'll just be EO but different layout.
I'd say that flyer thing or getting people to handout shit would be a good idea.
Get it written in the SKY!!! haha |

| Ya that's exactly what you need.. !!!!<p>IGet more people to put links to Asianet from their own webpages.. That's how you get more people to get to your site. |

| Hey, you wanted to generate traffic, well, Girls would.<p>But I think you DO need flyers instead of cards, they're much more noticable.<p>A Car club would work too... User meets, nightclub meets, heck, have a nightclub car meet!. |
|
|
| GirlRacer P1 |
The car club thing is a good idea, the bimbos are not.
I like the cards, they are nice, but for the events, flyers are the way to go.
I remember hearing something about the Soda Jerks thursdays wanting to be imports? We can have the AsiaNet car thing there. <!--emo&:)--><img src="http://www.asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'><!--endemo--> |

| wait until I am done with my AN Banner and submit it, then I will use it on my Email as one of my signature and so so to promote AN<p> |
|

| TurboBlueNX |
| During the last battle of the imports, I noticed a few people using those "folding tents" I do intend to get one to be sure that I reserve my parking spot. I think making an Asianet banner and putting one up would generate some interest now.<p>All I need now is the tent, I have a few ideas for banners as well. I'll submit them when I finish.<p>Anyone know where to get one of those tent/canopy things?... |
|
|
| Marximus |
| My god Andy, we think alike! <p>I'm currently looking for a tent as well.<p>For V8less AN will have a reserved spot in the VIP/Exhibitor area. I think we should park your's and mine there. <p>I'd like to see what ideas you've got going. Thanks for the help.<p> |
|

| HondaDude |
| If I spot one of those folding tent, I will let you guys know about it.. hehe I love shopping around =) |

| This is the one I was thinking of:<p>http://www.costco.com/frameset.asp?trg=product%2Easp&catid=114&subid=858&hierid=1090&prdid=10002497&log=<p>跋 in Canada. I need it to store my car during the winter anyways. We could probably put our tiny imports in there horizontally and fit both, and have room for a table :-).<p>I havn't seen it at any of the Costco's recently though. I think they may have sold out.<p>They had a more convinient Fold up canopy too, but it is much smaller but enough to cover a car. I believe it was 趚. |
|
|
| TurboBlueNX |
| Hmm, alittle rich for my tastes, I was thinking more like 9.5'x 9.5' this is what most people had there that day.<p>It's just enough to fit most of the car in and provide some shade too.<p>Plus, it folds up into a tiny package so you can carry it on your shoulder (silimar to the colapsable chairs) |
|
|
| Marximus |
| The one I'm looking for has to last through winter, so yeah probably not the best solution for you. However...<p>http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1184348346<p>Its closing in about 5 hours. I tried emailing the guy about shipping to Edmonton, and got no response. But at โ american, its a steal. |

| Marximus |
Well, here's the verdict...<p>Airmail (4 - 7 days) with insurance would be ๚.00. Economy (4 - 6 weeks)
with insurance would be ฾.00. If you have any other questions, please let
us know.<p>Thank you,<p>Tommy and Tina"<p>So shipping isn't cheap. I'm sure that ground shippping won't be longer than 2 weeks though, not the stated 4-7 weeks. |

| Thanks Mark, but ####, I've been screwed before ordering off the internet, so I'm really leery about ordering that. But that is exactly what I'm looking for <!--emo&:(--><img src="http://www.asianet.ca/images/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':('><!--endemo--><p>I'll just try to find one locally, sure I'll pay more, but at least I won't have to wait, and I know what I'm getting... Anyone see one, lemme know. |
