SMX Toronto was full of a lot of great information. I found that most sessions had at least one presentation that rivaled SMX Advanced conferences I’ve attended in the past, both in speaker quality and in content.

We were asked to drive to SXSW (South by Southwest) in Austin Texas along with other teams from all across the country. Our task: Drive 1400 miles to Austin Texas [...]
