Why Im Not Going to PodCamp New York

April 1, 2007 · Comments

I’ve been thinking this over for some time, but picked today as the day to make a decision: I’m not going to PodCamp New York.

Frankly, at this point, there’s nothing that can change my mind. I am just not enamored with the idea of hanging out with nearly 1000 people . It just won’t feel like old home days.

I wish everyone well, and I hope that you get lots out of the experience. It’ll be a great event without me. I’m too bitchy and self-centered anyhow. And besides, my birthday is the day after.

So, have fun.

ChrisBrogan.com runs on the Thesis Theme for WordPress

Thesis WordPress theme

Thesis is the search engine optimized WordPress theme of choice for serious online publishers. If you’re a blogger who doesn’t understand a lot of PHP, Thesis will give a ton of functionality without having to alter any code. For the advanced, Thesis has incredible customization possibilities via Thesis hooks.

With so many design options, you can use the template over and over and never have it look like the same site. The theme is robust and flexible enough not only to accommodate a site like ChrisBrogan.com, but also to enable the site to run far more efficiently than it ever has before.

  • I think I saw your name on the registration list - is that an april fools thing? Anyway - glad you are coming to Podcamp Europe in Stockholm :-)
  • Well, Dammit! Who is gonna take care of my Bar tab now!??

    Okay, You don't have to come, but you DO owe me a drink...or 7.
  • It be easy to be snarky to say: "Well in NY we do everything big" but I think that podcampNY is so compelling to so many who live here, that one can't keep it small.

    I signed up early, and will be hosting a session on my experiences producing my video podcast, gardenfork (http://gardenfork.tv ) and the number of people attending is causing me to think: wow.

    It will be harder to meet people, but maybe i'll meet more people than i anticipated.
  • Actually, April 2nd is my birthday. Which is why I didn't attend April Fools Day.

    Did you know that your birthday is my wedding anniversary, practically? I will be spending Saturday splurging in Boston.
  • Your still coming to Podcamp 2 in Pittsburgh right. Nice small crowd. tons of free food, the tiki bar gang. I know its early, ok really early, but if your not going to NY I am going to start the "You have to come to Pittsburgh" campaign now.
  • If it makes you feel any better, I am not going to Podcamp. What makes it worse is that I will be spending that entire weekend only 20 miles from the city.
  • Plus, people smell. Bad.
  • Rob
    This is just the excuse I was looking for. I'm seriously considering going now that I know this :-)
  • Jon
    Darn. I was planning to go to this one.
  • Bill, long live Don Mattingly.
  • Obviously, the Red Sox - Yankees rivalry became too much to bear... ;-)
  • Dude, you have to go, I just heard they were acquired by Podcamp Boston...
  • Happy April 1st!!!!!!!
