This is the follow up post for who wants to come to dinner , I decided that the most worthy winner was Anthony Shapley
so at the Dinner Table we had,
Anthony Shapley – www.anthonyshapley.co.uk
Mel Carson – www.melcarson.com
Todd Crawford – www.toddtalks.com
Joost De Valk – www.yoast.com
Marcus Tandler – www.mediadonis.net
Patrick Altoft – www.blogstorm.co.uk
Al Carlton – www.selfmademinds.com
Me and Becky,
The evening was a open and frank discussion about the industry and even if we didn’t really share amazing tips, ok maybe one or two, I hoped that Anthony made some new friends around the table, I gave him my Msn messenger account so he can keep in touch, Todd so so nearly convinced me to get an iphone after showing every app in the apple store ( yes he really does have them all 
), Marcus couldn’t eat his spicy soup or drink BEER, the beer was due to him drinking 500 litres in Munich 
..
Anyway I hope everyone had a good time and we will do it again next time I guess

Hi Dave, I was at A4Uexpo and really enjoyed attending the sessions where you were speaking,
I picked up on your comment about Google Webmaster Guidelines no longer recommending using directories such as Yahoo,
After doing some research (aided by the SEOchat forums) we’ve found that Google haven’t removed directories completely from the webmaster guidelines, they’ve just moved to this page:
http://www.google.com/support/webmasters/bin/answer.py?hl=en-uk&answer=66356
Hope you find this useful.

Sounds like you all had a great time! A Fun and generous idea to offer that place at the dinner table Dave i’m sure the Anthony gained some very good contacts.
