It’s official. PodCamp Montreal is a success. We had 384 participants on site, and 731 unique visitors checking out our live stream throughout the weekend. While our American friends were more likely to follow us on the livestream this year, we were thrilled to attract a greater number of locals to this year’s event, given that our mission is to encourage and promote the use of social media by Montrealers. Our schedule was nicely divided between French and English presentations, and the Montreal sun came out to grace us with its presence, which is always nice when you’re sitting on the great terrasse at l’UQAM’s Design School where PodCamp was held for a second consecutive year.

PodCamp Montreal is a labour of love that doesn’t happen overnight. The organising committee has been working tirelessly since spring on sponsorship, communications and logistics, not to mention climbing into bed together to produce a rockin’ promotional video. The sacrifices we make for social media!

It’s been great to get all your positive feedback and suggestions for next year. Thanks for coming, for supporting the development of social media in Montreal and hope to see you in 2010!

Do you find yourself yearning for more?

Your wish is our command.

With a little help from Julien Smith (a.k.a. John),  Michelle Sullivan (a.k.a. Yoko) gives you a list of reasons why you definitely need to come to PodCamp Montreal September 19th and 20th.

Since some of us work in the shadows, we want to be sure to recognize the great work of all the volunteers who came together these past few months to pull off a kick ass PodCamp.

We were also very lucky to be supported by volunteers, including students from Harold’s University of Sherbrooke class, Ile sans fil who provided the wifi, Christian Aubry and Manuel Angelini who, along with Laurent Maisonnave, were behind the camera for our live streaming, and Marko Kulik and Eva Blue, who were our official photographers.

Finally, thanks to all of you for making this inaugural event a big success. See you next year!

It features podcasts of some members of PodCamp Montreal’s organizing committee. Have fun listening to Mitch Joel, Laurent LaSalle, Jean-François Blais, Sylvain Grand’Maison, Bob Goyetche (twice the fun) and Julien Smith.
