Today concludes WOW’s media coverage of the Search Strategies event that took place last week in San Jose, CA. To assist us with a better understanding of what’s next for search, I placed a call again to Rebecca Lieb, editor, consultant, speaker, and VP, North America at Econsultancy. com
Rebecca recently wrote an article entitled “Whats next in Search” and for today’s podcast, I asked Rebecca to summarize that article with emphasis on the following topics.
•Expect more universal or blended search
•SEO gets more complicated
•Search goes Social
•Platform equals intent
•Smart Phones equals Smarter Search
Check out the full five minute interview on today’s Web Pro Minute website.

For four unforgettable days this October, MAX 2009 will bring together thousands of designers, developers, and decision-makers to shape the future. Exchange ideas and build relationships with leading designers and developers, industry experts, and Adobe product teams. Choose from hundreds of sessions and labs presented by industry leaders and Adobe experts on best practices and emerging technologies. Join the inspiring conversations that unfold when thousands of the most innovative, creative minds gather in one place.
Here are a few of the ways that you and your organization will benefit by attending MAX:
· Break new ground — There’s no doubt that your organization’s future success and profitability will depend on its ability to create compelling applications, content, and video on screens of every size, across operating systems, accessible from anywhere at any time. At MAX, you’ll see how it’s already being done, and can figure out how to adapt your own organization’s approach to customer and market demands.
· Become more productive — MAX helps people work smarter and faster, starting right away. You’ll learn how to get to market faster through efficient design and development workflows that support iterative development. You’ll attend hands-on training sessions and learn from real-world case studies that cover everything from powering public-facing sites to driving intranets to creating engines for the next generation of rich Internet applications (RIAs).
· Upgrade our organization’s skills — The dedicated Develop track is packed with sessions that directly relate to the work you are doing now and the work you will need to do next. Plus, you can and choose the sessions that are most applicable to your organization. Sessions cover the technical challenges faced in architecting solutions, building applications, integrating with back-end systems and services, dealing with occasionally connected clients, collaborating in real time, and much more.
· Learn from the experts — All MAX sessions and labs are taught by the best of the best — the kind of people you don’t just run into every day. At the same time, they can share their years of experience regarding what works and what doesn’t. This year’s developer headliners include Ray Camden, former vice president of software development at Broadchoice; Ely Greenfield, Adobe developer and Flex expert; and Christophe Coenraets, senior technical evangelist at Adobe.
· Bring home best practices — MAX attendees come from organizations all over the world, from small businesses to Fortune 1000 companies and local nonprofits to large government agencies. Past attendees include Google, Sony, FedEx, and Disney, just to name a few. That means you’ll be able to exchange ideas and make one-on-one contact with people who have dealt with the same challenges your organization is facing and learn how they tackled those challenges. And when you leave, they’ll be a part of your organization’s extended network.
