    I enjoyed the broadcast and thought you handled it very well. I had to laugh as you guys were getting emails from Google’s PR during the show. This is a great example of how more power creates much more responsibility and a middle of the night blunder can (and will) effect perseption of many marketers and business owners.

    Thanks.

    Yes, it was funny. Google was on containment overdrive. Never know what a loose canon like me could say…they figured that they would give me something to read to take up time. :)
