With Digital Atlanta 2011 week behind us, there are three takeaways for me:
1) The biggest value from conferences is not necessarily from the presentations, but from bringing the “community” together.
2) Where some brands are still missing the mark: speaking to and interacting with customers as if they “know them personally,” be it with poorly written content, lack of strategy, poor ux/ui, etc.
3) Umm…what’s the third one?…dang….wait I know this one!…hmm…the third one…I can’t…sorry!
Thank you to Digital Atlanta, organizers, volunteers, sponsors, and attendees for making this event, the best and most organized in 2011.
