Just got off the phone with Alex Williams of Corante, who invited me to attend the Podcast Hotel and Videoblog Festival — which he wonderfully described as a “happenin'” — July 15-17 in Portland.
I accepted, and if I can talk my wife into it, she and our soon-to-be 6-year-old will come along.
It’ll be not just a be-in — to use another throwback ’60s term — but a hands-on workshop as well.
It sounds wonderful, and Alex tells that Eric Rice will be among the 50 or so people expected. By then, I hope to have some videoblogs and podcasts in the bag, if I ever get a free moment for my life again.
Here are the details.

The Podcast Awards are coming up again. But apparently the entries are lacking a few basics, reflecting the poor understanding about RSS, show notes, and the various elements that go with a podcast.
