I am not one to panic easily, but if you have not yet registered for our conference in Pinehurst then it may just be your time to throw your arms in the air and in despair rush over to www.kayak.com to find a flight to Raleigh / Durham. Because you do not want to miss this event (or the great weather and golf in Pinehurst).

There will be many good speakers (yes, including Tank who you can see work hard in this latest episode of Tankworld), a set of expert roundtables to learn more about marketplaces, comparison shopping, search, website optimization and more. And of course insight into where ChannelAdvisor is heading in 2008 (meaning where our customers have told us we need to go).

Tank goes to CatalystI am particularly excited about 2 events: First, Sebastian Gunningham, head of Amazon’s third-party program, is going to talk about Amazon’s product portfolio for online retailers. And second, Ben Ling who spearheads Facebook’s foray into eCommerce will discuss eCommerce and advertising strategies for online retailers on this social networking wunderkind.

And if you’ve procrastinated so far, it’s time to register at www.channeladvisor.com/catalyst before it’s too late (I hear rooms at the famous Pinehurst Resort are almost gone).
