Hurricane Sandy was an unfortunately frequent topic of conversation during Accounting Today's 3rd annual Growth & Profitability Summit, held Oct. 28-30 in Boca Raton, Fla. Most of the attendees from the Northeast had flown out just ahead of the devastation, but regardless of geographic location, we all followed the news as the situation escalated - though all in different ways. While the hotel delivered The New York Times to my room every morning, by the time I received the folded daily, I had seen most of its news and photos on my Tumblr dashboard or Twitter feed the night before. Popular photo-sharing application Instagram exploded during Sandy - 1.3 million photos were tagged with a Sandy-related hashtag (#sandy).
