Leave it to John C. Havens, the About.com Podcasting Guide, to come up with these clever titles. He’s hosting a live podcast recording on Talkshoe to answer your questions about Podcamp.

John is one of the orgainzers behind Podcamp New York and he asked yours truly (I’m one of the organizers behind Podcamp Toronto) to join in on this interactive podcast, along with 2 more Podcamp organizers. They are:

• Bryan Person of Bryper.com, online media guru, podcast consultant, and co-organizer of Podcamp Boston (“original flavor”).
• Vic Podcaster of Hot From Silicon Valley, new media/startup expert and co-founder of Podcamp West.

If you’re interested in learning more about Podcamp and why you should attend, join us on this interactive podcast recording live on Wednesday December 13th @ 10pm ET. Here’s the details on how to join us.

What’s a Podcamp and Do I Need a Tent?

If you’re wondering how to connect in person with a group of podcasters/vloggers/new media types, chance are there’s a “Podcamp” coming soon to a location near you.

Part of the “unconference” style of live events, Podcamp started in Boston last summer and has now proliferated into multiple events across the country, around the world, and even online in virtual communities.

Rather than feature a “top down” feel where keynote speakers talk at paying attendees, Podcamp allows you to register yourself and a session you’d like to speak on – if you come, you can present.

The events are also free and foster community, networking, and a huge amount of valuable information applicable for “newbies”, seasoned technophiles, and businesspeople alike.
