Conference Hound-Up May 14, 2012: Isn’t Every Week Internet Week?
New York City is hopping and buzzing this week, but I guess that’s usually the case. And if you work for Google, you already knew that, because you guys know everything about everyone.

I’ve got plenty for you to do this weekend, if you aren’t too busy watching The Avengers over and over. It’s fine if you are, just remember: this is time you will never get back. If watching this film happens to produce the same chill one experiences when a ghost passes through them, you can [...]
