Founder and conference host Ivan Pope, known in the industry as “Mr. Widget,” has a wide range of cutting-edge sessions in store for this year’s expo. To name just a few:

• Widgets Marketing for Beginners
• Advanced Widget Tools
• Widgets Marketing Case Studies
• Social Networking Widgets
• How Widgets are Changing Publishing
• How Widgets are Changing Advertising
• How Widgets are Changing Search
• Measuring Widget Success
• Viral Widgets

At the expo, you’ll also be able to watch and enjoy the “Widget Effectiveness” awards and/or attend the Widget Standards Birds of a Feather (BoF) meeting.

Whether you’re new to widgets or have built your own, the WidgetWebExpo will be THE place to be and be seen this summer.
