  1. We visited all of them and really enjoyed them.

    Hopefully you will make podcasts available to archive this valuable information.

    SMX East was quite enjoyable and intimate – it seemed to only attract mostly advanced marketers so the crowd was more intense

  2. ARG.. I was way too far away to attend this but would LOVE to see videos or slides of any or all of these sessions – especially the Suchter one on URLs or the AJAX one. Puhleeeze let us know if there is an archive anywhere!
