100 PodCamp Topics for You to Cover
With PodCamp Boston 2 coming up Oct 26. - 28 in Boston, and with over 1200 people registered as of this very moment, PodCamp as a movement is going strong. PodCamp Cape Town (South Africa) just happened, and PodCamp Perth (Australia) is coming up simultaneous with Boston2. I figured as the cofounder of PodCamp, that I should write out some ideas for sessions one could cover, were one to be stuck wondering what to talk about. You could use these at upcoming PodCamps like PodCamp Arizona on November 3rd or you could just blog, podcast, or videoblog a topic as I’ve written them all out below. I just ask one thing: please link back to chrisbrogan.com with any post you write from this list. Thanks!

This has gone up on my wall beside the blog topics post you made … I feel this could be blog inspiration at some point too.
I’m doing #20 and something similar to #37 at Podcamp AZ on Nov 3rd. But there are a lot of great ideas here. If you don’t mind I’m going to post this on our site to give anyone else who wants to present but couldn’t think of an idea. Thanks Chris.
I’m not sure I’ll ever have the nerve to actually *do* a presentation, but your list *did* give me an idea for something I could do if I ever do get the nerve to try it out.
Thanks!
