Podcamp Colorado

Yeah! Another Podcamp. I gotta' get to one of these things some day. I'll keep watching and I hope you do too!

Here's a little info from their site:

"Independent thinking and a spirit of community help makes Colorado a great place to live and work. The area draws world-class new media professionals from every point on the globe.

"The Thin Air Summit celebrates Colorado with both hands-on sessions and discussion panels presented by nationally-recognized, local new media professionals. We're limiting attendance to 100, ensuring an intimate, intensive weekend of collaboration, education and community."

Podcamp AZ 2.0

Yeah, another Podcamp! From their site:

"What makes Podcamp AZ special?"

"Here in Arizona, we take the concept of a podcamp and change it to meet our needs. Hey, it’s hot and we have no water. We’re supposed to bend nature to our will.

"What makes ours different? Well, as you’ll note from the main page, this isn’t all about podcasting. Now we love podcasting, don’t get us wrong. But podcasting is simply a means to an end. It’s a method of distributing media files. We think the creation of those media files is more interesting. And we think what people do with those files is far more interesting than that.

"We also take significant poetic license with the “unconference” idea and do a good amount of pre-planning ahead of schedule. We just think that helps people decide if the event is right for them, rather than trusting the wisdom of the group. But we respect the unconference mindset and have dedicated room for the more anarchistic members to play in the undiluted waters of a true unconference.

"So yeah… different. We’re OK with that. And from what our attendees tell us, they’re pretty happy too."

Podcamp Ireland

How cool is this? This is my very first Seminar I get to list in the country of Ireland!

You know about Podcamp already, right?

Here's a little bit they wrote up about their LAST Podcamp (i didn't know about Podcamp last year!):

PodCamp Ireland (2007) took place in Kilkenny and was a terrific day of where we heard from newcomers and experts in social media in Ireland and beyond. Over 70 people attended the inaugural event and you can relive some of the moments via our Jaiku channel, uStream.tv channel (video) and in picture format through flickr.

PodCamp Ireland is the very first stand-alone event to promote the use and provide guidance and tips on the subject of social media in Ireland.

Podcamp Ireland is an unconference. In other words it relies on the active engagement and collaboration of participants to make it happen. Everything about an unconference comes from the participants. That includes the topics which will be discussed, the time and place, and even the decision as to whether to hold such an event at all.
