While the event starts in 25 days, numerous exhibitors already have posted short YouTube.com videos in a ProMat 2011 popularity contest.

The goal is to encourage visitors to exhibitors' booths during the 21-24 March trade show in Chicago. All ProMat 2011 exhibitors are eligible to participate.

Show organiser Material Handling Industry of America (MHIA) is conducting the Make-Your-Vote-Count contest. Every ProMat registrant has one vote to help select the winning videos.

An entrant creates a video of about one minute in length, uploads the content into YouTube.com and submits a completed entry form. Entered videos go through a screening process to assure they meet the contest rules.

Each of the top three vote getters will receive a USD100 gift certificate, and MHIA will host the winning videos on the www.ProMatShow.com homepage from 15-25 March.

Charlotte-based MHIA launched the contest on 1 November.

A trip down memory lane...

It’s the year 2000. You’re in front of a boxy beige desktop waiting for the screeching ramblings of your dial-up to reach its finale. You go to Yahoo!, MSN, or maybe AOL, and start the mind-numbing process of finding your very specific needle in the digital haystack. And with web pages loading one image at a time, patience isn’t just a virtue – it’s a requirement!

As clumsy as this early iteration seems now, this technology was the great enabler that allowed Forkliftaction to connect to the industry across the globe.

To everyone who has connected with Forkliftaction in the past 25 years, thank you for your contribution to our success! We feel deeply touched by your words of encouragement.
