On The Trail

I’m currently in sunny Santa Barbara at the eMetrics Summit. Day one has just about wrapped up, all that’s left is a little eating and drinking on the lawn. I came to the same conference last year, and before the venue, speakers and food (especially the food!) are excellent. There were many excellent talks today, but I think the highlight is putting faces to the names of people I see writing in various venues throughout the year. The networking here is excellent, and I’m a guy who would rather do pretty much anything else. The open, collegial atmosphere is the best part of the conference and it’s really why I came back.

I could write many pages about the talks, but I’ll limit it to two highlights.

The highlights turned out to be rather long, so I’m going to put them in separate posts, so you’ve probably already read them since they’ll show above this one. Oh well!
