Join us at ADSPACE next week

If you're in San Francisco next week, come see us at the ADSPACE conference and expo on Wednesday, April 22nd. This first-time event will teach advertisers how to maximize returns from contextual advertising platforms, like Google's content network. ADSPACE is taking place alongside ad:tech San Francisco and will be a gathering for small to mid-sized advertisers and publishers– it’s a great opportunity to network with us, and other advertisers and publishers.

Members of the Google AdWords team will be present at ADSPACE, and here are a few sessions where you can hear from them, which we think you'll enjoy:

Back to Basics in 2009 - Follow the User (Keynote)

Wednesday, April 22nd, 9:00am - 10:00am

In this session, Brad Bender, Product Management Director at Google, will cover an insights-driven approach to understanding what web users and prospects want, how publishers can use that information to build a better online presence, enhance the user experience and, ultimately, drive the best possible results.
