We Spread the Thunder: The Affiliate Summit Social Media Bus and Blogger Lounge

It’s been a week since the Affiliate Summit Social Media bus rolled from Boston down to NYC.  I’ve just recently recovered from the experience.  :) If you missed Gary Vaynerchuk’s u-streaming of the bus ride I recommend you check it out (and have a good laugh).

Big thanks to everyone who joined in for the Affiliate Summit Social Media Bus and Blogger Lounge.  It was a fantastic event. There are some great round-ups out there including on Affiliate Tip5Star Affiliate Programs, and my favorite: the Tris Hussey Flickr shots!

One of the highlights of the show for me was the Cory Booker Keynote! It set the tone for a substantive and productive conference. You can catch excerpts here! Be sure to follow Shawn Collins on Twitter as he will post the full video and MP3 of Mayor Booker’s speech as soon as it goes up.

** ADDITION TO POST: Here’s the full keynote!

Personal thanks going out to Gary Vaynerchuk for his participation!  Also, big thanks to Social Spark and Market Leverage for their sponsorship support.

Missy/Shawn – as always, you put on a wonderful event.

And finally, a big shout out (and some link love) for all my bloggers peeps who stopped in the lounge. You guys RAWK!
