My first time in Toronto did not disappoint. It was brief but very busy with plenty of sessions to choose from during the day. Here is a collection of my favorite photos taken during SES Toronto this week:
Matt McGowan, Joe Dolson and Todd Malicoat enjoying some pre-conference conversation
Kevin Ryan getting the most out of Google’s Bill Tighe during the Advanced Paid Search Panel
David Silver Smith really gave up the goods during the Web 2.0 and Search Engines Panel.
SEO myth-buster Jill Whalen tells it like it is as Matt Van Wagner thinks, “Damn, she’s giving away my secrets!”
Jeff Quipp, Jennifer Osborne, Emily Spence and Richard Zwicky working the exhibit hall
Yahoo’s booth complete with Wii and a big push for SearchMonkey
All work and no play makes SEOs dull boys (and girls) so Ken Jurina of Epiar and Yahoo threw a little party.

I’m back from SES Toronto and wanted to share the presentation on Twitter with readers that weren’t at the show. Fellow presenters @davesnyder and @chriswinfield did a great job and the audience received a deep drill down into many aspects of Twitter.
In the end, Twitter on it’s own and with it’s uptime issues isn’t anywhere near as productive as it is in combination with third party tools like Twhirl, Summize and Twitturly. Return on effort from using Twitter really depends on how you use it. The mileage will vary based on your goals, how much you give and to what extent you use Twitter in combination with other socnets like Facebook, LinkedIn and offline networking.
Here’s my presentation hosted on Slideshare:

A colleague of mine made an online purchase today (probably one of many). Included in a thank you for purchasing message was the following paragraph:
“Please help us to reduce our sponsored search costs (and so reduce our prices) by adding us to your Favorites before you leave
THANK YOU!”
So at least on person thinks that Google is capable of, and tracks, bookmarks. And that this would increase not only SERPs but due to relevancy reduce an associated AdWords cost.
I suppose it makes sense.
Anyone have experience of this?
