In case you missed it, we at the Search Engine Roundtable covered about 40 of the sessions at the Search Engine Strategies conference. I would like to thank again, Chris Boggs, Kim Krause Berg (Cre8PC) and Robert Kerry (evilgreenmonkey) for their huge contribution to the community here. I know, I appreciate it, and I know many of you do.
I am currently in the airport, yes - my flight is delayed again. So here is a quick roundup of our coverage over the past four days.
