SES London 2008


I'm proud, privileged and honored, to say the least, about being appointed as chair and host of next year's SES, London.

Danny Sullivan and Chris Sherman have set the bar pretty high for what is the premier search marketing show in the UK. So it's up to me to keep the pace. And I'm certainly looking forward to adding new and interesting topics, speakers and panels.

Of course, if you have any ideas you'd like to pitch yourself, or comments on previous shows, then please feel free to post them here. Or if you prefer to go direct, you can get me here:

Thanks to Kevin Ryan and Rory Brown at Incisive for your support. I'm sincerely looking forward to working with you both, as well as Stew Quealy, Marilyn Crafts and the rest of the SES team.

    Great to see that Mike - congratulations! Wish I could cross the pond for that one. Great hanging out at SES Miami and hearing your stories about Brian Johnson, the state of Search and your food adventures in China. Cheers!

    Congrats Mike! And thanks for today's great post. How about Google Base - Opportunities & Threads. Especially from a local search perspective this is huge.
