Fascinating topic and David's the guy to deliver it. Highly recommended!

This sounds like a great talk and also a new area for Drupal aka not the typical talk at a DrupalCon and very much in need for todays growing demand on Drupal in the enterprise looking forward to this one :D

This sounds really cool. My way find content to recommend has always been to count page views :)
