Feedback

Blogpost from the Alpha Mind</http> about the Blog Business Summit talk (August 2005):

Along Comes Mary
On this blog last night, listing the best presenters at BBS, I forgot Mary Hodder. I forgot because I was using the original speakers list to jog my memory. (Justly afraid I was of pulling out my actual notes–I’d never have gotten to bed.) Mary wasn’t on that list. She was called in last-minute to fill in for another speaker, and gave the kind of straight-on, cover-the-subject talk I appreciated from Rebecca Blood.

Comment left on the BlogOn blog about the Blog Business Summit talk (August 2005) from Liz Gebhardt:

Of the 8 sessions that I attended at the recent Business Blog Summit,the session led by Mary Hodder and Sally Falkow was the most informative and specific. Lots of great info and food for thought BEYOND what one could get out of a book or series of recent magazine articles.
