SES San Jose 2008, SEMPO Institute Training session

Sunday, August 24th, 2008

Back in Big D after almost a week at the Search Engine Strategies conference in San Jose.  I was there to co-present an eight hour session on the SEMPO Insititute’s Insider’s Guide, along with SEMPO Institute dean Terry Plank, and MSN’s Jorie Waterman.   

One other highlight was attending the Google Dance at Google headquarters in Mountain View.  The theme was “Glow in the Dark”, and the place was very lit up by night fall.  There must have been at least three thousand people there.  I took some interesting pics on my phone, and I will get those posted soon.

I also had the opportunity to judge the first SES awards.  Overall, a great show.

My interview with the Dallas Morning News

I was recently interviewed by the Dallas Morning News for a front page story in the May 18, 2008 Sunday Jobs section.  The writer covered the DFW SEM Association, SEMPO organization, and also how DFW is becoming one of the top national areas for SEM talent.
