But this is spot on what happened at the breakfast. I was a little disappointed that we didn’t get the discussion of the technologies (and was a little confused about SEO being in the alphabet soup, but I guess that proves some of the remedial point).

There were a couple of things that I felt the panel did well.

1. I finally got a good reason that podcasting is a viable medium. Time-shifting.

2. The customer motivations comment from Shar cut right past all the technologies to remind us that we are still dealing with the same people, just in different ways.

3. I asked a question about RSS, and the reponse about using push-tactics to encourage RSS readership as a marketing tactic is one that I think will take a while to grab hold, but once it does the RSS space will be just as competetive as any other.
It’s already full of content, I have way more feeds than I can fully devote my attention to, but once people start using feeds beyond the blog, I think we are really going to see an interesting shift in how messages are targeted and distributed.

So, I agree that it was a worthwhile session, met some good people there too.
