I put together this panel because it seemed like a dream team of people who are defining where the web is going. These panelists represent a diverse and insightful cross-section of the digital space, bringing together a wealth of knowledge and leadership from many aspects of the industry. Andrea Hill (afhill.com) is tech-savvy with a strong good, gut sense for what's developing in social media, a pro on consumer behavior and business; David Berkowitz (marketersstudio.com) is the good guy version of Don Draper gone right, a great communicator, plus knowledgeable on the challenges and opportunities so many folks are working to tackle; Justin Kalifowitz redirects where music and media intersect; Noah Brier thinks of brand and tech innovations in his sleep. I mean, what's not to love?

Fortunately for my marriage you qualified the Don Draper reference. I'm really excited to hear from everyone here if this panel goes forward - there's a lot I've learned from them already.
