Affiliate Summit West 2008 Thank Yous

Well, it’s over. I’m writing this post on the plane back to Denver and I couldn’t be happier with the trip that I had. Huge thanks to Josh for putting me up for the Summit, and for being such an all-around great guy to hang with. You’re my boy Josh - next time we’re doing the go-karts and shooting more machine guns...that was awesome.

Also wanted to say a big thank you to all the other affiliate bloggers who really made me feel at home. Thanks to Mark from 45n5.com, Carsten, Scott, Sam Harrelson, John Hasson, and Jim Kukral - it was great to meet you all (or meet you again in some cases).

Of course a huge thank you goes to Missy Ward and Shawn Collins - I have no idea how those two manage to put together an amazing conference and remain the life of the party at the same time. I really can’t tell you how much I appreciate the opportunity to cover the Summit via Marketing Punk. Also, thanks to to Shawn for letting people ride the Segway scooter - not sure why it made me carsick, but it was a lot of fun.

Also, love him or hate him, you have to thank Jason Calacanis for doing what he did at the Keynote...It’s rare that you see a keynote that leaves everyone talking for the duration of the conference, but that’s what Jason is a pro at. So thanks Jason...you jerk. ;)

Well, the turbulence is kicking in, trying to hold my coke in one hand and type with the other - so I’ll take that as my sign to wrap this up. So last of all I want to thank all of the attendees of Affiliate Summit - I’ve always thought that the best part of Affiliate Summit are the people who attend it, and this year confirmed that notion for me.

Hey Mark! Good to hear from you - we for sure need to stay in touch. Holler at me if you still want me to look at that concept your client is thinking about.

Joe! It was nice meeting you too...no worries on wondering off, that place was easy to wonder in :) Hopefully we'll run into eachother agan.

Thanks for the comment Hardeep. I enjoyed meeting you as well. Hopefully you found your friend after the Affiliate Bash.

Let me know if you want to meet up when you come to Denver...we can go grab some good Veg food.
