We present you with some “overheard” moments and quotes from today. Some attributed, some not.

“They give us a longer lunch here than jury duty!” – Steve Rubel, Edelman Digital

“We’ve had over ten thousand comments on our site since we’ve launched, and we’ve answered every single one.” – Jean-Paul Colaco, SVP Advertising, Hulu.com

“Everyone wants to be on Facebook, but people only go to Facebook to look at themselves and their friends, it’s like one giant mirror. SEO is where we need to focus…” – Guy on cellphone outside auditorium
