MIMA Summit-ing it up!

I was super pumped to attend the 2009 MIMA Summit this year.  Last year it was sold out before I could sign up and I knew that would be a good sign that it would be HUGE this year!  After all they had Seth Godin as a keynote speaker.

It's excited to go to these things both as a proud Minneapolis girl and a passionate interactive marketer!  I'm very proud to be part of both.  The sheer volume of attendees and the excitement accompanying the event were great reasons to be there.  Now here comes my list of likes, dislikes, and recommendations.

Likes:

-Seth Godin
-SEVEN breakout sessions to choose from for FOUR series
-Free Wifi
-Fun Swag
-Feeling a part of something very powerful and revolutionary
-Twitter correspondence throughout the day

Dislikes:

-Topics relevant to an online media girl were somewhat "beginner"
-Morning Keynote Speaker Jackie Huba using oft-reference social media examples Motrin Moms and Dominos
-Broken Wifi

Recommendations:

-Crowdsource the topics!  Find out who your audience is and what they want to know to refine breakout sessions.
- More panels and/or Q&A to bring diverse views to breakout sessions!

So there is my $.02.  Overall - good job to the folks at MIMA!
