In the fair cities of New York, Boston, Seattle, Chicago, San Francisco…even Charlottesville, its easy to have an elevated, challenging conversation about Web Analytics. These cities have a significant common factor which helps promote this ideal: Each has a significant level of business innovation driven by academia. In the southeast, at least in Florida, there appears to be an apparent void of buy-in, advanced practice adoption, and process integration for web analytics decision. The purpose of this post is to begin explore the possibility of a deficiency, cite reasons one might exist, and to get the attention of practitioners in the area to begin having discussions on what we know.

If you are a practicing web analyst, business intelligence analyst, or quantitative strategist in Florida (South Florida would be great) please leave me a comment or a note to tell me who you are, where you are, and when we can talk.   I’d be interested in getting something going for a Web Analytics Wednesday.  Further, I’d be really interested in comparing notes and seeing what we can learn from each other.

For those of you not in Florida, I’m interested to see where you hang your shingle too. Please feel free to contact me with any info or any subjects you’d like to discuss.
