What I learned:
1. Economy is effecting Google.
2. CPC is dropping and will continue to drop.
3. Google is in a unique position to weather, of not, profit from the terrible economy. And people who advertise with Google can as well.
4. The music industry needs to get a grip.
5. Mobile devices are the next step in the evolution of personal computer technology. And the first step in the subsequent enslavement of mankind by our benevolent robotic masters [sic]. So, let me be the first to welcome our new masters with open arms.
6. Cloud Computing is the next big thing.
7. Eric (Google) doesn't understand the potential of Twitter.
There was some pretty interesting Q&A going on too. It's good stuff. Keep informed! Information is what keeps you a head of your competition.
