    I was unable to attend in person and watched the streaming video. With the exception of not being able to zoom to read the screen, I was impressed with the quality of the remote broadcast. Audio quality was excellent, and opportunity to ask questions via chat was nice. I was able to log onto my company's adwords campaign during the session, listening to the audio while looking at examples in Google, to offset the fact that I couldn't read the slides on the screen.

    Don't miss this one. Keith knows his Google AdWords. I am sure some great tips and tricks will be revealed. PS: If anyone wants to learn more about Google AdWords, I'm teaching a two-day class on it later this month. See www.HippoIMT.com (Sorry for the flagrant promotion, Keith. I just can't help myself.)
