Jess did an outstanding job putting this together. No need for a Podcamp Frederick with events like this... And I finally met Jim and Guy in person. It was a blast.

All the presenters handed out gold in the form of information! I recommend it to anyone they attend the next one (which I'm sure there will be).

I wish I was on the Chamber of Commerce mailing list. I'd have jumped at the chance to go. Wonder if you gotta pony up the bucks to be a C of C member (probably) I just tried making a fan page for my company in facebook ... and discovered that there are more than a few choices. A Facebook "Fan" page offers a company wishing to list itself in Facebook certain options, a "Business Facebook Page" offers others... still trying to discern the pros and cons of one versus the other. I made a Facebook page for one of my local SEO clients: Gilbert's Restaurant Equipment but it's apparently not searchable in Google. So I'm playing with one for my company (Frederick Web Promotions) to see which is better for local Frederick small businesses the idea is if a Facebook Company Page shows up as a listing in Google (in addition to Google's listing of the company website) then that company occupies TWO listings out of ten (area denial for it's competitors) Damn… I wish I was on the Chamber of Commerce mailing list.
