SIC 2011 just wrapped up yesterday, and I spent the day going to talks by speakers from the worlds of UX, SEO, marketing, and branding. Like any convention, there were a lot of great talks going on simultaneously--it was hard to choose which ones to go to!

I've summarized some of what was talked about below, spanning mobile, design, SEO, and networking. Hopefully you get something out of it!

Last week in collaboration with SEOmoz we launched a brand new version of Open Site Explorer, an SEO search engine for link data (soon to be the only one?). This latest version of the site is built on Rails 3 and was in development for close to four months.
