Conferences and events attended in 2007.

A Few Conferences Before Christmas (Nokia World and Le Web)

So next week I’m off again, with a three night trip over to Amsterdam to attend Nokia World, the Finnish companies chance to show off to a conference of delegates and press. I’ll be covering the event, as always, for All About Symbian. Expect a bumper bundle of podcasts and editorial, and I might even turn my hand to some video coverage as well. The week after that is, of course, Le Web 3. You might recall that I had some strong opinions on this event after last year’s programming decisions. After talking to Loic Le Meur (the organiser) in

My Video Podcast, Podcamp Boston and the LOLSaurs

Back from the travels, and the last stop had been Podcamp Boston. Two things of note from my point of view from the event. The first, of course, is that I’m more than happy now to tell people about “Spence” my video podcast. If you’ve not had a heads up yet then head over to the site (or subscribe to the feed).

Thoughts On The Portable and New Media Expo 2007

Looking back at this year’s third Portable and New Media Expo, I have mixed feelings. There’s no question that the event was well organized and both Tim and Emile Bourquin are to be congratulated for a smooth running show, a packed set of sessions, a brilliant concert Saturday evening and programming a number of ‘evening events,’ but something about the event just wasn’t quite right for me. And no, I can’t describe it as more than a feeling. As a commercial podcaster (and VP at The Podcast Network), sessions on building and reaching audience, monetizing podcasts both appealed to me,

Opening Up The Conference Bag, from The Podcast and New Media Expo

One of the amazing experiences at the Podcast and New Media Expo (PME) is podcasters interviewing and videoing other podcasters about what they do. And yes, I’ve been involved with a few of those as well. I have only recorded one for myself – and that’s the “Lets Go Through The Conference Freebie Bag…” But I’m not doing it alone!
