		<description>Did you know that in 2008 we spent over $43.2 billion on our pets in the U.S?  Now that&amp;#8217;s a powerful affiliate marketing niche!
Importantly, over $22 Billion was spent on Vet Care and Supplies / OTC medicines versus food, which accounted for $16.8 Billion.

It&amp;#8217;s not all fun and games at the Summit.  It&amp;#8217;s really hard work networking with the old-timers.  As you can clearly see we&amp;#8217;re hard at work putting the final touches to our devious plans.

It&amp;#8217;s unusual for us &amp;#8216;tech folks&amp;#8217; to actually arrive on time, but unbelievably the queues had formed forty minutes before the [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/forge-affiliate-marketing/~4/4Z4lEvoDAQc" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>

I&amp;#8217;m speaking on affiliate marketing of course!
Gillian Meier from jobs.co.za gave a great seo presentation followed by Brett Sinclair from Admob with some really interesting mobile ad insights. 
I&amp;#8217;m currently listening to sa guru/blogger Louise Marsland on reputation management. Wow!

Their video is slick, well produced and clearly illustrates how to place your first time order on Peapod.com.  The video is not rushed, promotes the fabuloussavings.com brand, walks the viewer through the shopping experience and [...]&lt;img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/forge-affiliate-marketing/~4/31xhFC6vy1E" height="1" width="1"/&gt;</description>
