I’m in San Diego for Comic-Con through Sunday capturing video for sci-fi blog io9.com. I’ve never been before, but some say it’s the “Burning Man of comics” with some 100,000 attendees expected. Being a n00b, should I expect to be spanked on the way in? Is there anything that is a can’t miss experience? I’ll update with links to video on io9 as the weekend progresses.
I’m in Vancouver, BC this weekend to participate in MooseCamp and Northern Voice, a couple of day long conferences dedicated to changing the world through blogging and vlogging. A tall order for sure, yet you don’t succeed if you don’t try. The Vancouver peeps I’ve gotten to know over the past year are some of my favorite brilliant freaking minds and hearts. I feel like there is an underground subway between SF and Vancouver which I’ve finally discovered.
I’m plugging in a couple of ways. I’m co-hosting VideoCamp with Warwick and I think Scoble at MooseCamp on Friday. On Saturday, I’m leading a discussion at Northern Voice titled ‘Using Internet Video to Change the World One Eyeball at a Time’. I’m going to seed the discussion with a bunch of examples of what I call ‘world changing’ video in hopes of spurring others to offer up and create their own. More later, flight to catch.
