PodCamp is a FREE BarCamp-style community UnConference for podcasters and listeners, bloggers and readers, and anyone interested in New Media. I was lucky enough to participate in the first one, held for the first time from September 8-10 in Boston, Massachusetts. I learned so much and the networking was awesome. I don't even podcast!
The event is now spreading across the world, but if you happen to be in Boston or visiting in October 26-28th, you absolutely must go if you're interested in New Media. Here's the link to the registration for PodCamp - don't sign up unless you actually plan on attending.
Chris Penn one of the founders just let us know that they're running a contest. If you follow that link above, it is a customizable URL that lets event planners track which affiliates bring in the most clicks and "ticket sales" - well it's free, so sign ups.
They are offering the affiliate who brings the most people to PodCamp Boston a Sanyo VPC-CG65 handheld video camera (rough market value: $350). This little baby is what PodCamp Co-Founder Christopher Penn uses to take videos - it shoots with the advanced AVC/H.264 codec and can cram 75 minutes of high quality video onto a single 1 GB SD card. See an example here.
I want one! Even if I don't win the camera, it doesn't matter because this is an awesome event you shouldn't miss and I'd say that anyway even if there wasn't a chance to win a video camera!
