Podcamp Philly 2010
PodCamp Philly is celebrating its fourth year of the area’s largest digital media UnConference on October 2nd and 3rd, 2010 at Temple University.

PodCamp’s UnConference-style means that the participants are also the experts and the speakers.  First held in Boston, Massachusetts, Podcamp has spread across the United States and the world to bring people of all backgrounds and abilities together to teach and learn from each other.

“The purpose of PodCamp is to share information, build and grow relationships and grow the new media community.  This type of event encourages interactivity, Q&A’s and sessions that are dialogues versus monologues.  Topics range from beginner to expert and hobby to business in several tracks including podcasting, blogging, social media and technical.”  says event co-organizer Lynette Young.  Summaries of some of the sessions can be found on the PodCamp Philly website.  A full schedule will be posted prior to the event.  The attendee generated content will have something for everyone whether you are focused on learning for personal or professional use.   Have an idea for a session or just want to lead a discussion?  That is what PodCamp is all about!  Everyone sharing their experience and knowledge.  Simply submit a session proposal via the website.

Tickets to PodCamp Philly are $20 and are available at http://podcampphilly2010.eventbrite.com/.  The fee covers both days of Podcamp and admission to the social events. Admissions fees are donated to a local charitable/educational organization.  Last year, PodCamp Philly raised over $4,000.00 for Covenant House in support of homeless youth.

PodCamp Philly is sponsored by Pandemic Labs, Mashable.com, Hoffman Digital Media, Professional Podcasts.com, Purple Stripe Productions, Red Stapler Consulting, Social Media Club Philadelphia and Social Media Club Princeton.   Additional sponsors are welcome.  Information on sponsorship opportunities are available on the PodCamp Philly website (http://www.podcampphilly.com).

Walt Ribeiro - Building Your Brand Session

Some of the sessions I attented really insipired me to work on some of the ideas I had for a long time. The one sessions stood out for me was Walt Ribeiro’s Building your Brand Session.

He is very energized internet music teacher and lives off by doing a video show on his blog – WaltRibeiro.net. This dude reminded me so much of Gary Vaynerchuk, and I think he will make it far in the online music space.

Philly New Media Community is definatelly an exciting place right now and I am looking forward to attending more events like this.
