Eric Peterson and the crew at Web Analytics Demystified have yet another project that benefits the analytics community. The first ACCELERATE conference will go down in San Francisco on November 18th.

As a result, it is also sold out. Hopefully you landed yourself a ticket, but if not, keep up on the next ACCELERATE announcement via the Web Analytics Demystified blog.
The conference is ending with an Ignite-like Super Accelerator session. I’ve thrown my hat in the ring and have a few words of wisdom of my own to impart on the crowd. If are making it to ACCELERATE, make sure you stay through the end and see the Super Accelerator session. The list of presenters is great, and it’s sure to be an entertaining hour. Hope to see you there!
