Monish Datta Learns All about Facebook Measurement
Posted by Tim Wilson - Thursday, June 3rd, 2010 at 11:06 amColumbus Web Analytics Wednesday was last week — sponsored by Omniture, an Adobe company, and the topic wound up being “Facebook Measurement” (deck at the end of this post).
For some reason, Monish Datta cropped up — prominently — in half of the pictures I took while floating around the room. In my never-ending quest to dominate SEO for searches for Monish, this was well-timed, as I’m falling in the rankings on that front. You’d think I’d be able to get some sort of cross-link from http://www.monishdatta.com/, but maybe that’s not to be.
We had another great turnout at the event, AND we had a first for a Columbus WAW: a door prize. Omniture provided a Flip video camera and a copy of Adobe Premier Elements 8 to one lucky winner. WAW co-organizer Dave Culbertson presented the prize to the lucky winner, Matt King of Quest Software:
Due to an unavoidable last minute schedule change, I wound up pinch-hitting as the speaker and talked about Facebook measurement.

I made some subsequent updates to the deck (improvements!), but below is substantially the material I presented:
In June, Columbus Web Analytics Wednesday is actually going to happen in Cincinnati — we’re planning a road trip down and back for the event. We’re hoping for a good showing!
Three things I know: 1) My wife got the raw end of the deal when she married me, 2) I blog because it keeps my e-mails shorter, and 3) If you have the urge to talk about data usage in business, I'll do so until long after that desire has passed (for you). If you want to know more, check out my

Matt Clark? That d00d looks just like me. Oddly enough, I was there and won a very similar prize, but my name is Matt King.
Odd coincidence indeed.

Doh! Sorry, Matt. That’s fixed!
