Seth,
Thanks for posting the link to the agenda. I didn't think it was a "secret", just didn't know that it would be online.
I hope that you guys learned a lot of stuff and that your blogs improve in both content and revenue. If you're working, why not get paid? Isn't that what America is all about? It would seem that Google analytics would be interesting for anyone to learn...
I did find it interesting that OMAAT had people other than Ben listed. I saw he had a guest poster a few weeks ago, but didn't know who the other two were.

I find TBB tiring to read, so have only visited rarely. But the BAcon post linked to above earned him a place among my bookmarks.

One more time the Buzz gets called out and he retreats to "well its just for entertainment" "You miss the whole point of my blog". "Let me slam away at others and when I get called out I have a standard response to say it is "all in fun"
Its getting old and the suit shows signs of folding
Its getting old and the suit shows signs of folding
Which makes it incredibly entertaining!

If you're going to speak to what happened at the event then it is probably a good idea to actually know what happened at the event. Or maybe I'm the only one who thinks that. I can handle it if that's the case.
There were maybe a couple hundred tweets about it. And my Bloody Mary wasn't even from the official event; I had that before we started on Friday. Also, it was delicious.

What do you find so offensive in his post? And what crap did he make up?

Offensive? Nothing, except perhaps the writing style. And all the repeated "this is just a joke" claims are crap when the actual behavior is far from such.
A lot w/r/t the focus of the content and the time devoted to various bits.
Such is life.

But if you're going to try to explain your accusation, you might want to understand what satire means first. From dictionary.com satire is "the use of irony, sarcasm, ridicule, or the like, in exposing, denouncing, or deriding vice, folly, etc."
