Why Im Not Going to PodCamp New York

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.

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.

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.

Actually, April 2nd is my birthday. Which is why I didn’t attend April Fools Day.

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.
