I started thinking about dragging out the first of the Halloween decorations this morning.
What?
SHOOSH. For as long as it takes me to get from "thinking about" to "doing," I probably should have started thinking about it in July if I actually want the stuff set up by the end of October.
Which means I should probably start working on my PodCamp presentations. Because, hey! If the pumpkins are started to lurk, it must be time for Pittsburgh PodCamp!
Here's the long of the short (just in case I haven't already started harassing you personally to attend). PodCamp Pittsburgh is essentially a gathering of people who are involved with and/or interested in social media. That includes bloggers, podcasters, people who use Twitter, people who active on Facebook, and people who want to be or do any of those things.
It's a chance to learn, a chance to interact, and a chance to have a really great time.
If you own a business, you'll have a chance to learn how to use social media to be more effective. If you work with a non-profit, you'll have a chance to learn how to use social media to be more effective. If you just like playing around online, you'll have a chance to learn how to use social media to be more effective.
So you should attend. So you can be more effective. Heh. (And so you can have a really good time. I've never heard a single person say PodCamp was anything other than a great time.)
I'll be there on Saturday, September 17th presenting twice. First I'll be co-presenting with Firemom with Blogging 201: Keeping Your Blog Going. Later I'll go over Stumbleupon: Discovering and Promoting the Best of the Web. It's all free, so I hope to see you there!
