If all goes well today I will be heading to SMX Advanced in Seattle this afternoon, my wife is not feeling to well now that we are down to days, not weeks for baby #3, so we will see.

Although I only get the expo pass, I’m still look forward to attending. The expo hall is not that big at all, it only takes a little bit to go through it, but there are some good contacts to make.

There are also a couple of sessions that expo only passes can attend.

Today I will be attending:

Microsoft adCenter Desktop Lab – Although I have not used it, I’m looking forward to learning about the new features.

Search & Social: Measuring & Driving Brand Effectiveness – This one should be a little interesting, the panelist will share how they are using technology to power advertising performance using search and social media insights.

After those sessions, I might hang out in the expo hall and watch the Matt Cutts Q&A.

Then a few of us are heading over to HasOffers office and take a quick tour, then head out to dinner. I am looking forward to dinner with Ian Fernando, Matt, Josh and Nate from Unique Blog Designs, Cameron and Peter from HasOffers and possibly a couple others.

If you see me there, say “Hi” and I see you there, I will do the same.
