Coverage on Danny Sullivan Leaving August 31, 2006

Brian’s Business Blog has a great post on the impact of Danny Sullivan leaving SEW and the list of bloggers who covered the move. Brian quotes an idea from Joe Morin on suggested next steps for Danny…
the most logical thing that Danny could do if he were to compete head to head with Incisive – is to compete head to head with Incisive by coordinating a competing conference on the exact same dates that SES shows are scheduled and force the speakers, attendees and sponsors and exhibitors choose which venue to align themselves with.
Its gutsy, but who do you think all of the aforementioned would go with? I know where I would go and judging by all of the outcries in the blogosphere by the search community, I’m guessing thats where they would too.
Is it me or are there too many conferences out there..



I agree, there are an abundance of conferences out there. I suspect Danny’s time would be better served not by competing head to head, but by creating something different/unique and more useful that what’s available at the current SES shows.
