PodCamp Pittsburgh After the Fact

chrisbrogan · November 12, 2006 ·

Justin Kownacki of Something to be Desired and his fine team of helpers pulled it off in style. The event knows as PodCamp Pittsburgh was a raving success as far as I’m concerned. From the first pre-pre event meal at a little Mexican hole in the wall to the official meet and greet at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, to the actual PodCamp sessions, this went well.
The sessions were an interesting mix (check them out here) of video and audio, super-expert to newbie. For instance, I ran a session asking people to teach me Final Cut Pro. Thankfully, David Kowarsky of Focus (and a colleague at Pulver.com), was there to help with that session. It was very well balanced.
One thing that PodCamp Pittsburgh did well that I hope to learn from is that PodCamp Pittsburgh pushed hard for feedback from the start. They built their prize giveaways back into the feedback loop. Further, Justin pushed hard for people to get in touch with the continuing conversation on the wiki. He wants the information to move forward, from one Camp to the next.
Speaking of which, the very next PodCamp is PodCamp West in San Francisco this next coming weekend. Are you going? I can’t make it personally, but Justin, Erik, Rachel, Andy, Sarah, and a dozen or so more volunteers proved that you don’t need Chris Brogan and Christopher S. Penn to run a PodCamp. I’ll sit this one out, and prove that theory out even a little further.
But you should go, and as we get sessions posted online from the Pittsburgh event, you’ll be able to come and see it. Thanks for supporting PodCamp Pittsburgh.
I can’t wait to see my family again. Very much. I miss them.
Another post coming soon about affogato, and *PLENTY* of media from the event to work through.
I’m in the lobby of the Wyndham Garden hotel with Michael Bailey of MobaSoft, and he’s been telling me about his future plans for 30 minutes nonstop with all the passion of a man who’s going to get it done. “Come Hell or high water,” he tells me, “I’m not giving up. This will be done.”
