Talk about an amazing venue! Aaron Kahlow, whom I had the opportunity to meet briefly, really outdid himself last Monday, February 22, 2010. 
Not only was the venue exquisitely beautiful in person, but the attendees were terrific and engaging. Although the weather was unusually chilly by San Diego standards, standing by the heat lamps of course helped.
Here are some of the standout people I had the privilege of interfacing with that evening:
Denise Persson, Chief Marketing Officer and Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for ON24 Inc., a company that hosts large-scale online tradeshows, conferences, virtual events and webcasts. I was so impressed by what an established, large-scale company it was, and was very interested in all of her stories with customers, as ON24 primarily works with Fortune 1000 companies.
Lawrence Coburn, Founder and CEO of RateItAll, a popular consumer driven review site that reaches an average of over 1.5 million users per month. Lawrence gave a presentation about User Generated Content, Widgets, and Social Media Distribution.

I am proud and excited to announce that I will be attending the only conference solely dedicated to online marketing education, the Online Marketing Summit (OMS) 2010’s OMS VIP Happy Hour here in San Diego this Monday, February 22, 2010. The Online Marketing Summit (OMS) is a truly unique conference. There are no vendors, no salesmen, no exhibitors/booths and no pitching allowed. This educational environment facilitates incredible learning, networking and collaboration opportunities amongst like-minded marketing peers.
Described as, “Exclusively for OMS speakers and sponsors, you are cordially invited(along with one guest) to attend the VIP Happy Hour to kick off the 2010 Online Marketing Summit in San Diego! With beautiful panoramic views of Mission Bay, this VIP welcome reception will be held at the Barefoot Bar & Grill located at Paradise Point Resort. Enjoy the tropical waterfall and sea-life lagoon while you mix, mingle and network with over 100 marketing movers & shakers.”
