"Guest gauge"

I just learned of a feature at the online Las Vegas Sun that I had never heard of before: The "Guest Gauge." It summarizes how busy the weekend is likely to be due to conventions and other factors.

I do periodically look at the Las Vegas Convention Authority's web site to see what big meetings might be occurring where, but it's kind of a hassle, because most of the conferences listed are tiny little nothings that won't affect where good poker games are likely to be found. This Sun feature looks, at first glance, as if it will be faster and better for that purpose. Now if only they had an RSS feed for when it is updated....
