When I had to cancel my plans to speak at ScarySEO, I was bummed. I actually fear speaking to groups. There’s something about the social anxiety and fear of bringing nothing of value to the table that’s simply intimidating. It doesn’t matter how large or small the group is… It’s simply tough for me to get used to. I was sitting around a bar Monday night with Eddy, Hunter and Matt before we went over to the Cambridge SEO Meetup…
Just throwing a feeler out there to see if any of the local SEO crew will be heading into Providence on Tuesday night to meet Nick Gerner of SEOmoz when Jill Whalen, Pauline Jakober and Jonathan Hochman throw the next installment of SEMNE events.

My lengthy blog post last night regarding the concerns webmasters and search engine marketers have regarding the new Tynt Beta service was met with cult-like following. While my post received attention from sources like Twitter and Sphinn, where many shared my views – it also helped Tynt to understand concerns and prepare a response plan.
