After an extended summer break (as explained by my esteemed co-chair, Dave Mc Clure, we both have been quite busy), the Search SIG returns with a very interesting program on September 12th, focusing on Search Analytics. And since this is a wide subject that touches other types of metrics and usage, we have decided to broaden the scope quite a bit by inviting a set of companies that measure, track and analyse traffic and behavioral patterns of web sites, blogs and feeds.
Panelists:
Jeff Gillis, Google Analytics
LeaAnn Prescott, Hitwise
Don Loeb, FeedBurner
Scott Rafer, MyBlogLog
Agenda:
6:30-7:00pm - Registration / Food & Drinks
7:00-€“7:05pm - Intros & Announcements
7:05-8:15pm - Episode I: Search Analytics Panel
8:15-8:30pm - Intermission: Networking for Geeks (and non-Geeks)
8:30-9:00pm - Episode II: Live Demos
9:00-9:15pm - Open Mike for product launches or announcements (please email me at searchsig [at] gmail [dot] com)
9:16pm - End of the session
Location & Directions:
We are most grateful to AOL for hosting us on very short notice at the AOL Campus, Bldg #12, Shasta conf room. The address is 401 Ellis Street, Mountain View, CA 94043 (click for map)
Take the Ellis St exit from 101, and head west about 1/4 mile. The AOL building is a 3-story mirrored glass facility, about 3 blocks down on the left hand side. (note: if you get to the light at Middlefield you've gone too far; make a U-turn and come back 1 block)
PLEASE PRE-REGISTER on the SDForum website if you plan to attend (to help AOL plan for enough food & drink to go around)
Dave will emcee the session solo as yours truly will be in (hum) Vegas to attend the first day of TechEd - a long time commitment that unfortunately means that I won't be able to attend this very interesting session.
