We were at pubcon Boston this past week. It was fun; we saw Malcolm Gladwell speak, along with a great "bloggers of search" panel with Matt Cutts of Google, Jeremy Zawdony of Yahoo!, and Robert Scoble of Microsoft. The conference is for webmasters, obviously, and is pretty heavy on the search marketing side. We won't bore you with all that, but what we did find today is an account of the tremendous time 3 women had coming to Boston for the first time (from the South) to attend the conference. Here's a taste:

We had agreed to meet there and take the “T” to our hotel since none of us were familiar with the area or this “T” thing (Boston’s infamous public transportation system). It would have been nice to just catch a cab… but that wasnt an option with the Boston Marathon going on that day.

And yes, it gets better than that.

We thank the ladies in this article for reminding us what it means to be a New Englander, and why we're proud to be one through and through.
