This Week In Internet Marketing 2011 02 07

Happy February!  We have just begun enjoying 'Social Media Week’ in Toronto.  It is a great way to keep on top of the industry and meet lots of people that are also interested in Social Media!  I highly recommend that anyone interested check it out!

Oh ya – and congratulations to Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers.  The Super Bowl win should be enough to keep Brett Favre retired for good this time. – Maybe. Smile
