eMetrics San Francisco 2008 – Preamble

image

I’ve arrived in California for the eMetrics Summit and am really quite excited!

Being in charge of the adCenter Analytics Blog has meant I’ve had to get up to speed on the whole analytics industry……….and quickly!

It’s one thing going to web analytics sessions at a search conference and listening to Matt Bailey or Avinash do their very good & well established thing, but it’s a totally different bucket of page views to be thrust into THREE DAYS of numbers, goal, actions, funnels and treemaps!

How will I cope? Well at SES London I was a little nervous about attending a dinner Ian Thomas had organised for the Orion Panel – Jim Sterne, Bryan Eisenberg, Brian Clifton etc…. Ian had even said it might be a little dry & nerdy but it wasn’t at all.

I’m happiest when my brain is hurting! The wit, charm, intelligence and mental agility was immense and  the generous repartee made for a fine evening…

Life’s about looking forward, moving forward and learning how to get there.

If you own a website, you could do worse than find yourself in amongst these guys…….you’ll definitely come away with some things to think about!

    Mel – all that wit, charm, intelligence and mental agility was just a reflection of what you brought to the table. A note to all others – if given get the chance, buy Mel a meal. I promise your head will hurt twice. Once in keeping up with his repartee and once again in the morning. A double espresso and two glasses of orange juice, please.
