Good feedback on the Affiliate Summit social media panel

It’s always good, crucial I think, to read what other people think about your panel.  I usually think it has gone well, but always hard to know if you’ve hit the mark.  In my wrap up post, I focused on us not being able to give the “magic formula” for people.  Joe Tech got some […]

Loving the Segway at Affiliate Summit!

Until this week I had never ridden a Segway.  Well, thanks to Shawn, now I have.  They are cool, but getting on them the first time is a little tough.  Shawn’s video doesn’t have me doing turns in reverse, but man it was fun:

Now, I wonder if could get one here in Victoria.  […]

Affiliate Summit wrap up–whole new world and we can learn from each other

Back home now from Affiliate Summit and I’m still processing what I learned.  Some of our pre-conceived notions are correct.  There are some affiliate marketers who are just out for the quick buck and don’t care about how it’s done, however I feel that they are in the minority of folks.
I also know now that […]

Affiliate Summit Media Coverage Panel

Media coverage on the Internet, and print, is always a hot topic.  How do you handle an advertiser who wants coverage after buying a full-page ad?
Some of the comments so far are great.  Send us a case study, make sure it’s of value to my readers, is it newsworthy.
Andrew Wee mentioned that in smaller publications […]

Affiliate Marketing is a whole different world

Halfway through the day here and I’m in my post-lunch glaze.  I haven’t attended any sessions since Jason’s keynote.  Why?  Well unlike my usual conference fare, I’m not into these sessions.  Wandering through the exhibits I was just struck by how we just don’t see this whole, huge side of Internet marketing.  Sure we talk […]

Jason Calacanis keynote at Affiliate Summit West 08

Even though there is no WiFi in the conference hall, I could not pass up live blogging Jason’s keynote.  Sam Harrelson is also live blogging…he has WiFi cause he’s staying here at the Rio.
We’re second row centre in the “blogger row” … sweet eh?  Steph Agresta is the “hostess with the mostest” and keeping us […]

Blogging from Affiliate Summit West 2008

Good morning from Vegas.  I posted some things I wrote on the plane last night, but now, blogging starts in earnest.
Jason Calacanis is doing the keynote this morning, and Jim Kukral is intro-ing him.  Jim did an awesome job intro-ing Mark Cuban, so I’m expecting great things!
Now the one thing not to expect is live […]

The Best of Affiliate Summit West 2008

Like Marshall did with his coverage of DEMO recently, I’ve used aideRSS to make a “best of” feed for Affiliate Summit West 2008.  Right now it just has my feed, some general searches are coming soon (they are queued right now).  As I find bloggers who are covering ASW08 I’ll add them directly (yes Steph, […]

Heading to Affiliate Summit next week and I need your t-shirts!

Next week I’ll be at the Affiliate Summit in Las Vegas.  Yeah, no I won’t be gambling.  I would like to ride that roller coaster on the top of the building though.  Regardless I’m on what is going to be a kick-butt panel talking about social media to affiliate marketers.
How kick butt?  Check out who […]
