Ses Seo Fashion & Marketing Analysis From the SES

By Jeremy Schoemaker 2 comments

A lot of people have written asking about if I thought the conference in San Jose was worth it and what companies I was impressed with and so fourth. I thought I would break down what is really the guts of the expo. THE FREE STUFF.

BTW you can see all images in HI-RES Here

Google :: Overall 10/10

Google Backpack

Comments:The Google backpack was by far the highest quality item I got at the SES expo. It is much more sporter then the current “geek pack” I am sporting around. I have a really small Sony Vaio T150 laptop so this will be perfect to tote that around along with my ipod and some other gadgets that always get me held up in airports….
