PubCon Las Vegas 2010 To Feature Keynote By Search Pioneer Tim Mayer
PubCon, the premier new media and optimization conference and expo, has
announced that longtime search engine guru Tim Mayer, a former head of search
product and business at Yahoo, will present a keynote address during PubCon Las
Vegas 2010 at the Las Vegas Convention Center South Hall on November 8 - 11,
2010.
With more than 15 years of pivotal involvement in the evolution of search
engines, Mayer will offer his unique insights on the future of new media and
optimization to PubCon Las Vegas 2010 attendees.
“Having Tim Mayer at PubCon Las Vegas 2010 to present a keynote speech will
be a very special treat for our attendees,” said PubCon founder and
WebmasterWorld Inc. chief executive Brett Tabke.
“We're excited to present one of the driving pioneer forces behind the historic
expansion of search technology as a PubCon keynote speaker, and we're sure
Tim's insights will help make this the biggest and best PubCon Las Vegas ever,”
added Tabke.
Mayer, who has been an adviser to several cutting-edge mobile Web and online
television start-ups since leaving Yahoo in August, is a natural fit for a PubCon
keynote address.
“I have been involved with PubCon since 2002 and participated both as a panelist
and a keynoter,” said Mayer.
“It has been great to be involved in the growth of the PubCon conference as well
as seeing the relationships and community — both online and offline — that have
developed around it,” added Mayer.
Mayer's extensive involvement in the growth of search engine technology and a
fresh and energetic approach to new media strategy is certain to both educate
and inspire PubCon Las Vegas 2010 attendees.
During his seven years at Yahoo Mayer held several global leadership roles in
search, the commerce businesses, front page programming, and mobile search,
heading many key endeavors at the Sunnyvale, California-based giant's various
search properties.
Prior to Yahoo, Mayer managed pivotal firms that played key roles in making
search a multi-billion-dollar industry, including Overture Services Inc., where he
was vice president of search products, Fast Search & Transfer (FAST), where he
was general manager and vice president of the Web search division, Inktomi,
where he was director of product management, and The Thomson Corporation.
PubCon Las Vegas 2010 includes keynote speeches from noted author and New
York Times technology columnist David Pogue, one of the world's leading voices
on technology and social media, and a very special powerhouse keynote panel
featuring Sevans Strategy founder Sarah Evans, social media firm UnMarketing
president Scott Stratten, New Marketing Labs president Chris Brogan, and
Copyblogger founder Brian Clark.
