Last Wednesday and Thursday, the InfoTrust team made a trip down to Atlanta, Georgia for the second annual Digital Summit. Taken from their website, this was “Atlanta’s largest Web, Digital Marketing, Social Media and Innovation Conference. Hundreds upon hundreds gathered to hear dozens of industry thought leaders on topics such Customer Engagement, Mobile & Location, Social Media, Usability, Online Advertising, Search Marketing, Analytics, Email, Ecommerce, Online Video and much more.” Our own Michael Loban was a speaker at this event and discussed Social Media ROI using Web Analytics.
Twitter was the obvious choice of communication among attendees, and nearly everyone contributed to the hashtag #DSUM12. So we decided to pull the top tweets from the Digital Summit and this hashtag, enjoy!
