The second day of the Google Affiliate Network Client Summit featured a packed agenda starting with a welcome from Chris Henger, Head of the Google Affiliate Network, and then a fast-paced and informative keynote from Andy Sernovitz on word of mouth marketing.
We all got a copy of Andy’s book, Word of Mouth Marketing: How Smart Companies Get People Talking, which I was planning to pick up, so now I’ve got another book on the to do list I’m looking forward to reading.
There were a number of other quality sessions, but my favorite of the day was from Avinash Kaushik, Analytics Evangelist at Google.
He was funny and engaging – something I didn’t expect for a talk on data – and I’m looking forward to picking up his book, Web Analytics: An Hour a Day.
The second day wound up with a tour of the Google campus. All I can say is wow!
Now I need to go and charge my Blackberry with the neat little solar powered charger they gave us. Thanks for a great time to the Google Affiliate Network.

It’s been nearly two years since I was on the merchant side, so I can’t really speak to what’s happening with each of those options.
What kind of adapter did you need? I am happy just to have the Blackberry one, so I’m content.
As much as I might like to think I can see the future, it took place earlier this week.
