Ottawa’s marketing community continues to impress me with its increasingly rich offering of web and social media related events. I’m sure I’ve missed several, but the month is flying by me and I wanted to get these one published:

Ottawa Web Analytics Wednesday: Feb 10th, 2010
February 3, 2010
Join us on Wednesday February 10th, 2010 for Ottawa’s next Web Analytics Wednesday!
As usual, it will be held at the Black Rose Room (downstairs, at the back) of the Heart and Crown Pub at the Byward Market location, 67 Clarence Street, Ottawa, Ontario, K1N 5P5.
However, on the “not as usual” front, our presenter will be Jim Sterne, web analytics guru extraordinaire. Among other guru-like accomplishments, Jim is the Founding President and current Chairman of our Web Analytics Association.
Jim is visiting three of our fair Canadian cities and in Ottawa in particular, will also be speaking the next day, February 11th, 2010 at OCRI’s Zone5ive Marketing Forum.
Also – please note that this month’s Web Analytics Wednesday begins at 7PM (as opposed to the usual 6PM).
See you there!

Good news – Alex Langshur of PublicInsite has announced the date for Ottawa’s next Web Analtytics Wednesday.
Details: Wednesday February 11th, 2009 at 6:00. This month, it looks like we’ll be at the Heart & Crown Pub in the Byward Market, in the Black Rose Room and our topic is:
“…this event will feature a short presentation by the Canadian Mint on how they used customer satisfaction measurement to dramatically improve the user experience and drive key conversion events.”
And with a refreshing beverage or two, no less. What an excellent way to get your professional development in this month, don’t you think?
Thanks again for hosting Alex!
