I literally fell asleep during this one -- in fact, three people from my company fell asleep. And I LOVE analytics...this session just didn't resonate with me for some reason.<br/><br/>Heather Paulson's session was great, but I do agree that she was condescending in tone in parts. She's a real smart cookie and I learned a lot from her.<br/><br/>Overall? I think the thing went a few hours too long. There were a few sessions that could have been pared out and that would have, I think, opened the floor for some more question and answer stuff, which was actually (in most cases) more helpful than the actual lectures. I learned a TON, though, and I'm totally glad I came early for it, but I'm wiped out from ten hours of lectures and then a night on the town losing money. :-)<br/><br/>We're moving to the Rio tomorrow morning, setting up our booth and doing a bit of the meet and greet. Do you have any info on the Shareasale party? I hear it's going to be a hot ticket and I want to make sure I can get to their booth in time to grab passes.

I liked Amit’s session. It was what I expected it to be.

The metrics session was the most boring of the day, by FAR, for me. I literally fell asleep during this one — in fact, three people from my company fell asleep. And I LOVE analytics…this session just didn’t resonate with me for some reason.

Heather Paulson’s session was great, but I do agree that she was condescending in tone in parts. She’s a real smart cookie and I learned a lot from her.
