@eric: I have a copy, but I'll take a signed copy and pass my copy along to a deserving Coremetrics CE. And I promise: I'll read the rest of yours AND get Avinash's as well.

@CP: Email me a reminder and I'll gladly bring you a free signed copy to Ft. Worth later this month. Since you're an old-timer I doubt you'll need it but I'm happy to spread the good word …

And seriously, if you haven't read Avinash's book, you should. It's a fun read and full of good stuff.

I guess I'm going to have to go read Eric's book after-all. Somehow I thought I may get by without it, but thanks to all the commotion the classic is now more than a classic: it's a "geez what did I miss" read.

Seriously, congrats Avinash. Maybe I'll read your book now … (right after Eric's of course)…

Congrats Avinash & job well done!

It was real thrill to meet you and attend your talk a week or so ago in Atlanta, GA. Please let me know the next time you'll be in town. The information you provided was great and I even blogged about your talk on my blog at the URL above. :)

When you were in Atlanta, GA, you mentioned the increase in keywords per query (from 3 to 4) seen by Google in Q4 2007. I think it's pretty important information and hope you'll blog more on those findings when you have time? By the way, how does Google calculate figures? Does Google round up from 3.?? or is the actual value equal to or greater than 4?

Again CONGRATS, thanks for your time and have a great day!

-Brian

Many congratulations for your Semmy award!

I believe that usability, search engine marketing and web analytics go hand in hand, and you are the prove that anything can be made simple (even if "complex")! :)

Thank you for your kindness and insightful tips.
