We chose a simple appetizer called "Intuitive Antipasto". It was a little orange rind basket containing a standard Italian antipasto: grilled peppers, olives, cheese, etc. The orange gave the olives and salami a lovely citrus aroma.

Jesse Thomas, CEO and founder of Jess3, moderated the session "Social Media and Business: Where's the Money?" with panelists Ben Grossman and Intel's Kelly Feller. The discussion focused on the best ways to measure social media, including free and paid monitoring services. Particular attention was paid to how social media can positively impact all parts of the sales cycle, especially the post-purchase evaluation cycle. Companies can make a name for themselves in the social media sphere by answering customer questions and building trust. Companies should weigh the cost it would take to produce a social media resource (ie. video) versus the opportunity it creates to impact consumer behavior. The panelists agreed that the next big trends include mobile/portable applications and Open I.D., the concept of having a single address book across a variety of networks that integrates the information and more easily allows you to connect with friends and communities.

This question and the associated practices seem to be laden with bizarre egotistical behaviors that are still highly unevolved, so I would expect the rules of engagement around this to change substantially over the next year or so."
