Public Media 2007 Conference Wrap-Up
EventsThe Public Media Conference in Boston proved to be one of the most unique audiences I've ever spoken to. Rather than webmasters and business owners, the crowd consisted primarily of reporters, station executives and public media contributors.

EventsI'm sick as a dog, but the people must have their blogs, and so I bring you tidbits - good ones, though. My presentation on Analytics was great fun (download the PPT here).
