In this edition of Massive eNews, we have 3 great articles on SEO, web usability, and computer recycling. We've also included post-event photos from our Mini-Massive in Vancouver. For those of you who are working in Alberta or Ontario, it's not too late for you to register for Mini Massive in Edmonton (Tues. Nov 27) or Toronto (Thurs. Nov 29). Be sure to read on for other upcoming business events.

I'm also pleased to annouce that starting in December each province will receive their own version of Massive eNews. If you travel frequently and would like to receive multiple editions, please let us know. We'll keep you updated on the most relevant tech and business information every month!

Sincerely,


No Small Fête
The Massive Team greeted more than 100 eager networkers from the technology and business sectors at the launch of Vancouver's Mini Massive Networking Event last Thursday. The event attracted professionals from a cross section of the communities and was the grounds for flourishing business relationships. Massive would like to thank our exhibitors and sponsor, Blink Media Works, for their support and enthusiasm.
