  1. How To Effectively Disorganize an Unconference

    It has been a very long year. About a year ago I attended my very first meeting as a part of the planning committee for Podcamp Halifax. Previously I had attended and presented but I just sort of assumed that magical faeries assembled everything the night before and made it all just sort of work. […]

  2. Survey Feedback

    Survey Feedback: We Hear You…Thanks! *Since this blog post was written in early February, a debrief meeting with the library was held.

    Podcamp is full of unique content, and it would be great to be able to capture and share. But just a slide deck on its own doesn’t really capture the talk itself, or any audience participation.

  8. Tomorrow’s the big day – a few reminders

    Tomorrow’s the big day – just a reminder that registration starts at 8:30 AM and sessions at 9:15 at Alderney Gate Library http://goo.gl/maps/MXQsr. The Halifax-Dartmouth ferry doesn’t run until 11:45 so check bus routes, perhaps even with the Transit 360 App. If you’re coming to the Podcamp Social at the Hub tonight, we’re hosting Battledecks! 5 people, 10 random slides, 20 seconds […]
