How Do You Calculate The Value of a Friend on Facebook?
C’mon, if that’s not the best session title of the whole darn show, I don’t know what is! Ben Rattray (Change.org) is here to help us find the value behind all those “friends” on Facebook. Hopefully they’re worth something a little more than all those pokes and zombie requests.
Oh, and cause I know you’re interested, Ben is a total hottie. … Read more
Measuring the Success of Non-Commerce Websites
I just had some coffee. I feel better.
Alex Langshur (PublicInsite) is here to talk about how to measure success when it’s not about sales and shopping carts. I’ll admit; I’ve been looking forward to this one since I got here. I hope it delivers.

Actionable Organic Search Analytics
We’re back in the search track with Matt Bailey (SiteLogic) and Diane Hoag (IBM developerWorks). Matt is giving me a hard time for going to bed early last night and missing out on all the debauchery that went down after I left. Based on how tired Matt looks, methinks I made the right decision.

Multivariate Testing Panel
We’re switching things up a bit this afternoon. Instead of the Web Analytics: Road to Marketing Optimization panel we’ll be covering the session on Multivariate Testing. And it’s not just because they’re giving away free Google T-shirts over here. Well…not entirely, anyway.
Up we have Jon Diorio (Google) moderating speakers Andrew Anderson (CNET) [Andy Anderson? Like in How to Lose A … Read more
Behavioral Targeting Across Ad Networks and On Your Site
Back from a delicious, delicious lunch and it’s time to talk behavioral targeting. Please welcome our speaker Anil Batra (ZeroDash1). Yey! Our moderator says there’s a one cookie fee for anyone whose cell phone goes off during the session. Yes. If your phone goes off, you have to give me a cookie. Lisa likes that idea.
Hee, just as … Read more
