<\/p>\nCouple of months back, a mob over East announced that they wanted to hold a podcamp – an unconference for people who create new media – podcasts, net video, blogs etc. So, they set up a voting competition to determine the venue of the first Australian podcamp.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
I don’t think they expected the crowd from the West – probably still high on the rush from Perth barcamp<\/a> – to have such a strong showing. In the face of the results –Perth – 152 votes, <\/strong>Sydney – 84 votes, <\/span>Melbourne – 33 votes, <\/span>Brisbane – 8 votes, <\/span>Adelaide – 6 vote – they had no alternative but to honour the commitment and bring Australia’s first podcamp to Perth.<\/span><\/p>\n Details so far are sketchy, but watch the Podcamp Perth<\/a> website as they come in. Here’s some info:<\/p>\n PodCamp Perth is the new media community UnConference that helps connect people interested in blogging, podcasting, social networks, video on the net, and new media together to learn, share, and grow their new media skills. Whether you\u2019re just interested in new media or an experienced veteran, PodCamp Perth is for you!<\/p>\n Everyone is welcome, regardless of your involvement in new media, as long as you want to learn, share, and grow your knowledge!<\/p>\n WHEN:<\/strong> October 27 & 28 Wisely, they have enlisted help from locals and set up a local organising committee, who are:<\/p>\n Brownen Clune<\/strong> from PerthNorg <\/a>
