Anyone hear anything on the Associate Conference at Amazon?
Any news from those that attended?

The conference was very useful.

We got to meet the whole associates team (lots of people), had presentations from alexa, topica publisher and overture, Jeff Bezos gave a pep talk and answered questions, they showed us what the Amazon Web Services are capable of, and then we had breakout sessions where we gave feedback on many aspects of the program.

Overall there were about 30 associates there from the west coast, some weren't too happy (planning to drop Amazon because of the changing commission rules and cap removal/reversal) but mostly everyone got a lot out of it and made good contacts.

I got lots of ideas out of it for making some money for my boss and consider it a good use of my time.
