Affiliate Summit New York City Recap

by Vinny on August 14, 2009

Still trying to digest all the information I picked up from this years Affiliate Summit in New York City. Besides seeing old friends I met a lot of people that I never had the chance to meet before even though I had been chatting with them online for years.

We arrived on Saturday just in time to make it to the www.buy.at party. Those people over there are some of my favorites in affiliate marketing. Their party was on the roof of the Empire Hotel near Lincoln Center. Good time was had by all. Below is Charlie Calabrese explaining about the Buy.at merchants. Lucky for us he is a better speaker then a RC helicopter pilot but we won’t go there.

My favorite sessions was the site reviews as I love it when they break down a site and explain what is wrong with them. I could sit in those sessions all day long. The session with @streko and @sugarrae @graywolf was my favorite one, can’t wait for the video.

Speaking of videos here is one from my friend Joe Sousa of all the parties. Warning there is singing and dancing involved.

The best part of Affiliate Summit for me was the Peter Shankman keynote. I met Peter last year at Affiliate Summit but  that was only a panel, this year he had over an hour and it was great. If you want to know anything about Using media Peter is your guy.

There are a few others that have recaps. Adrants and my favorite OutSpokenMedia who reviewed the session I was on the panel for Geekcast Live.

You forgot about the big news during Affiliate Summit – that you flipped and decided to start running sponsored Tweets.
