Web 2.0 Expo Power of PlatformsThinking of heading to Web 2.0 Expo San Francisco this May?  If so, be sure to check out the "Individual Shmindividual: Granular Metrics Are So 1999 (Or Are They?)" panel on Tuesday, May 4 at 11:10 a.m., which features HubSpot Founder and CTO Dharmesh Shah.

The panel will focus on the increasing amount of debate in the industry over the merits of capturing granular data over aggregate trends. From the Web 2.0 Expo web site's panel description:

"On one hand, granular data gives you the power to understand a single user's actions and intent. On the other hand, metrics revolving around individuals give you indicators, not predictors. Is the notion of 'follower count' today's equivalent of yesterday's 'website hit'? Is there a place and time where measurement at the individual level should be considered? You'll be joined by some of the smartest minds in the industry as we party like it's 1999 and discuss the merits of individual and aggregate measurements, applied to real life scenarios."

On the panel, which will be moderated by Sean Power of Watching Websites, Dharmesh will be joined by Marcel LeBrun of Radian6, Daniel Lu of SlideShare and Marcus Nelson of Salesforce.com. Find additional information about the panel here.
