Watch the video and review some selected event photos – both are presented below on this page. Use the navigation table below the video to jump into the video or share selected highlights with others. Special thanks to eBay, ACM Data Mining Special Interest Group, and Austin Anderson of Spice Pictures, LLC. Austin supported me with his time, expertise, and professional video camera filming the day’s events.
The next ACM Data Mining Camp for 2011 will be held October 15′th at eBay: More Info
