This will be my second year at PodCamp (I was at the very first PodCamp in Boston last year), and my second year covering PodCamp for the PLA Blog. I absolutely can’t wait! This is a free barcamp-style conference, where anyone can give a presentation. As a matter of fact, I’ll be presenting “Smart Plan, Sexy Cast” on Saturday, October 27 from 2-2:45pm in Room 204b on the virtues of making a plan before you make your first recording.

The registration process recently went into “wait list” mode, but since the venue is huge and the numbers look OK, the fellas running The Joint are honoring all wait list “tickets” (preregistration online via EventBrite). As of this writing ,there are 69 “wait list” tix left, so if you can even attend for 1 day, I’d recommend it!

If you’re going to PodCamp, gimme a shout out here in the comments. Alternately, I’ll be checking Twitter off and on (mostly on), so feel free to DM me there.

Can’t come to Boston this weekend? Look for a PodCamp near you! Since October 2006, PodCamps have been cropping up all over the US, as well as in Canada and Australia. If you have a podcast or vidcast of your own, or your library has a podcast or vidcast, consider doing a presentation on ‘casting libraries and librarians, or something else that interests you about the casting sphere. Besides, it’s free!
