Tommy—Try this, introduce yourself to a stranger right next to the person who should know your name but maybe forgot it. Then the forgetful person will hear it.

I’m a little confused by “Remember, some people are bad with names. Be courteous and offer your name as if the other person knows it. Makes it easier for people who forget not to feel stupid.”.

Not sure how to pull that one off.

PodCamp Toronto was fun last year. However, me being my shy self didn’t really meet anyone new. Being 14 (actually, I was 13 at the time), its a bit harder to go up to people and say “Hello” and try to get to know them. However, at the time, I did a lot of Live Interactive Podcasts at TalkShoe, and met some people on that community, and met one of them – Connor Bevans – at PodCamp Toronto for the first time. That was great! Can’t wait for the next PodCamp around here! :D

Thanks for the tips Chris!

Man, PodCamp pitts was fun, I sure wish I could go to this, but school takes priority over a little road trip. I love the wallflower people, that’s going to be stuck in my head for a while now.

Thanks – I appreciate the advice, and might even have some fun with a few of the advanced techniques. Depends, I suspect, on how much coffee I manage to pump into my system that morning…

Alternately I’ll make sure people connect during my Personal Branding session to kick it all off on Saturday morning.

I’ll provide tons of insights into what people can do to better connect :)

This makes a lot of sense and was very helpful to this first-timer counting the days till Podcamp Boston 2. Thanks, Chris!
