I was digging in the way back machine for some pictures today so that I can update my blog headers, when it hit me how many of us have changed since the first Affiliate Summit, back in 2003.
Lots of different hair styles (especially in my case), some weight gains and losses, changes in significant others, etc. It was also kind of interesting to see some folks sporting different logo wear from the various companies they have worked for as well.
I guess the coolest thing about digging up these photos is that I’ve realized that although many of us have gone through physical changes, job changes, etc., we’re all really still the same people. I remain friends with just about everyone that I met when I first got into this industry. Anyway — enough of the drivel.

So fun to see what we all looked like and remember all the zany happenings that occur at Summit!
That’s so true! Only 3 Summits ago I was…young. Now… I ‘m ragged. I blame affiliate marketing
I look exactly the same in 2003. These are awesome, thanks for posting.
