&lt;p&gt;Today&#8217;s audience measurement challenge is NOT keeping up with technology, it&#8217;s keeping up with consumers. Where are they?&amp;nbsp; What are they doing?&amp;nbsp; How are they doing it?&amp;nbsp; What tools can we use to measure them?&amp;nbsp; Will they work with us to help secure measurement?&amp;nbsp; These are the questions that  2008 Audience Measurement 3.0 addressed.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Previous ARF Audience Measurement Symposia have examined the challenges of traditional media versus new media and, last year, the increasing personalization of media.&amp;nbsp; This year, we  examined the urgent need to get measurement out in front of the consumer.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What happened?&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;h2&gt;consumers &amp;bull; media + mobility&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;AM 4.0 puts the best brains in the business together in two  intense media measurement-driven days. Learn from leaders light-years ahead of  the pack: Jeffrey Cole of the Digital Center of the Future and Louise Shipnuck,  IBM's Institute for Business Value guru, report on the leading trends in the  digital realm and prognosticate on the future. Google, YouTube, Microsoft,  Ford, NBC Universal, TNS, Nielsen, Kraft Foods, ABC, Starcom, ESPN and others  connect the elusive consumer dots.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;Is IBM right about the end of advertising as we know  it?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Is consumer controlled media changing the rules of  measurement?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;How does the explosive growth of CGM affect the rules  of measurement?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;How long will internet metrics remain a conundrum?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Will mobile become a viable marketing medium?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Does our media-agnostic world require metrics beyond  exposure?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;How is digital technology reshaping media and what do  we do about it?&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;Will cross-media metrics become a reality?&lt;/li&gt;
