The slate:
• Dennis R. Mortensen, Director of Data Insights, Yahoo!
• Akin Arikan, Senior Segment Manager for Internet Marketing, Unica Corporation
• Nicolas Babin, Executive Vice President, International & Marketing, AT Internet – publishing XiTi
• Matthew Langie, Senior Director, Product Marketing, Omniture
• John Payne, VP of Product Management & General Manager, Coremetrics
• Mark Wachen, CEO, Optimost
All adult people, with adult pictures and adult titles and goals - and with that in mind, I would probably vote for Akin, as he seems very much like an entrepreneurial doer! Which is something I believe this organization could benefit from. They asked me two question:
What major contribution will Dennis R. Mortensen bring to Web Analytics Association and its membership?
A positive attitude for one global united WAA, with strong local distribution of power and resources. A possibility to set and execute on standards, beyond just chatting about them! — Clear vision on where the industry is going and what the tasks of the WAA should be.
Where do you think the Web Analytics Association should be in the next two years?
I believe the WAA is in a position to become a much larger and more prominent voice in the industry on such items as: Privacy, Standards and Member Qualification and Certifications.
Where we today have initiated a lot of good initiatives, but perhaps lack in execution and realization of some of them. Cheers … and have a great time voting. Oh. There’s free Red Bull’s and Y! accounts for votes on Dennis 
Dennis R. Mortensen, Director of Data Insights at Yahoo!
