It may be Friday, but I’m still working to recover from my trip to SMB Nation in Seattle last weekend. Great event, with lots of excellent content, lots of great vendors and plenty of good times. We all enjoyed ourselves, it was nice to finally meet some of the non-Ben’s from Calyptix, and plenty of big names in the SMB space.

I wish I had more time to have stayed in Seattle and be all tourist-like, but duty called, so I had to come home on Monday. I did want to make sure I threw shout-outs to Autotask, Bandwidth.com, and Jeff Middleton for throwing some excellent parties. These guys really made the weekend a blast, and would have been reason enough to travel to Seattle.

As far as evidence of our fun goes, check out the following picture sets:

I also have to recommend any that makes it to Seattle to try out the Spitfire restaurant in Seattle. Great food, some pretty good West Coast Microbrews, and really nice atmosphere. Just make sure to try the Tortilla Soup.

Now, please take a cupcake!
