Cribbed Content for January 30th
Friday
Jan 30, 2009
There wasn’t a large amount of stuff going on this week, but what did go on was big news and somewhat exciting. There’s some important issues going on and some dates to remember.
- Not one, but two keynote speakers have been announced for Affiliate Summit East 2009, August 9-11 in New York City. Social media rockstar Chris Brogan will take the keynote torch during the traditional Monday slot, then Help a Reporter creator Peter Shankman will fill a new keynote spot Tuesday morning. Very cool!
- I haven’t yet had a chance to write a recap myself, so here’s the recap of LinkShare Symposium West from the official LinkShare blog.
- Speaking of LinkShare’s Symposium, they’ve announced the dates for LinkShare Symposium East, including the Golden Link Awards. For some reason it was not announced on their blog or website, but widely reported by other affiliate bloggers like Missy Ward.
- Speaking of affiliate networks, ShareASale has decided to lead a roundtable discussion on toolbars and setting standards to keep them within the ideals and ethics ShareASale has set forth. There’s a lot of backlash about it on ABW, but I think people are jumping the gun – let’s see how the first discussion goes before making a solid judgment.

Chris Brogan is keynote, cool! Thanks for the recap of the recap. I agree with you on the Roundtable: “let's see how the first discussion goes before making a solid judgement.” Yes!
