Last year, I had the opportunity to speak at the PDMA International 2008 conference in Orlando, FL. I gave a talk entitled:
“Building a World Class Web 2.0 Product Organization”

Google Translate, don’t fail me now!
I’m excited to say that LinkedIn launched its third language last night: French! You can find Jean-Luc’s blog post on the LinkedIn blog.
