The Enterprise Search Summit will be in Washington, CD, from November 1 to 3, and it's looking good!  We're concentrating on strategies for making Enterprise Search work in the real world, with case studies of successful implementations and practical information about search-based applications and mobile search.

New to our lineup is Greg Nudelman, author of this year's best book, Designing Search: UX Strategies for eCommerce Success.  He's been involved in several mobile search interfaces, and will present Ubiquitous Enterprise Search: New Design Approaches for Mobile and Tablet -- this is going to be good!  Register for the conference before October 7 to get the early-bird discount.

BTW, I've been so busy with this conference and a large contract with a giant healthcare system's intranet search that I haven't been very responsive, and I apologize.  If you need something from me, please remind me by commenting here or sending email, don't be shy!
