cruel to be kind

yeah yeah a bit late, but I added now my photos from podcastcon. :o)

The following are a bit special.

A great t-shirt:

Geeks playing parking a train …

(they did another mashup of Accident Hash and the TPN Rock. )

Guess what is wrong with this picture:

Podcasting Bingo

It was – as last year – a wonderful event and many thanks to the organizers! :o)

The britcasters are going podshow – well nearly as Neil put it in britcaster.podshow.com:

In the past few days since the word going out about Adam Curry wanting to meet UK podcasters and my well timed Skype interview with him (to be available soon), I have now had five conversations – yes five, of varying degrees of seriousness and intensity – asking when Britcaster.com will ’sell out’ in some way to a London, UK division of Podshow Inc. Astonishing.

While it would be interesting to meet Adam Curry, I am more interested in seeing those brits again, like Alex Bellinger, Neil and his …

After being “Stranded in Stansted” without money on thursday, some sight seeing on friday, Podcastcon UK on saturday, some mind boggeling talks on sunday, I am back safe and sound.

But as especially sunday has started some thoughts and reactions, I will need a bit time to try and sort out what has happened on these last days. More later.

I just wanted to have one blog post directly from the conference.
Everything fine here, wifi is a bit slow but everything else seems interesting.
:o)

Literally seconds before I was going to upload the file, my DSL connection broke – I was a bit in panic because I thought “oh what if it is your side and not fixed tomorow? you have more files to post!” and was making plans of going to my favorite café for uploading. But luckily this morning, everythings is working again. :)

In this fourth podcast of the podcast con uk coverage, I interview Ewan Spence.

General stuff:

• Did you book your place yet? Only 40 places left!
• Forgot to mention it on the podcast, but a page for meetings on saturday and sunday are up. :)
• And Adrian has collected some links about “visiting London?”

The interview:
I “know” Ewan Spence through the ThePodcastNetwork, where he co-hosts The Movie Show and has his own rock show. But today I wanted to know from him, what intersting things he can tell us.

Ewan reports from his latest project, the Edinburgh fringe podcast throughout the festival. He recorded in the morning and either make people …

We talk about why a “blogging company” comes to the podcast con, about the new podcasting feature of Typepad and why it is interesting for them as a company to keep an eye on these new technologies.

He also seems really excited about podcasting: “Six months ago the whole approach was rather clumsy, but now there are simpler methods. I am looking forward of what happens in 12 months.” Of course I had to ask the ‘continental question’ again ;o) and we finish …

Today I talk to Lloyd Davis from Perfect Path, who is maybe the one britcaster I am most familiar with, be it from his Perfect Path blog and podcast or his participation on all of the geek dinner stuff (for example girl geek dinner).

He describes himself this way:

I have a knowledge management practice based in London, UK and specialise in helping people be brilliant in the knowledge economy. I spend most of my time in interim management, mentoring and in running workshops and strategic awaydays for teams. I’m currently talking to people about how to use weblogs, wikis, podcasts and really …
