One Month Until PodCamp Ohio

Written by Doctor Anonymous on May 28, 2008 – 2:28 pm -

Calendar
Can you believe that it’s only one month until PodCamp Ohio? Sheesh! This is my first post here, but I have to tell you that the organizers have been doing a lot of work over the past few months to get things ready for this year’s PodCamp.

And, let me tell ya, you don’t have to be an organizer to help prepare for PodCamp. You can help us as well. If you’re not already registered, please do! If you are registered, thanks so much – and now is the time to make that big push to really promote, promote, promote, and promote!

If you haven’t already, you can blog about it, podcast about it, make a video about it, put a badge on your website, put up some event flyers, buy a t-shirt, make/download/watch/listen to a PodCamp Ohio promo, listen/participate in the weekly talkshoe meetings, and a whole lot more. Check out our Participate page for more info.

Are you excited yet? We only got 4 minutes to save the world – er, We only have one month until PodCamp Ohio! I’m really looking forward to meeting everybody and learning so much new stuff about new media and social networking.

Finally, don’t forget to put on your calendar the PodCamp Ohio Kickoff Party which will be on The Doctor Anonymous Show on Thursday, June 26th (2 days before PodCamp) at 9pm Eastern Time. My show is a LIVE internet radio show on BlogTalkRadio and everyone will have the opportunity to participate in the live interactive chat room and even call into the show and say hello. All this while seeing my shining face on the live webcam (scary, huh).

Podcamp Ohio May 17th Meetup

Written by brandice on May 26, 2008 – 12:36 pm -

Here are the first two videos from the Podcamp meetup in Columbus a couple weeks ago. In the first, you can see a bit of our Panera time and then little tidbits of our wanderings through ITT Tech. The second reveals that no one at ITT Tech likes podcasting and we epic fail at interviewing.
