First time to attend and enjoyed all of the workshops that I attended. It was well-organized and the crowd (speakers and attendees) were engaging inside and outside the sessions. Looking forward to PodCamp Toronto 2014!

Absolutely fantastic - learned so many things to help me improve my online presence. Speakers gave 110%. Organizers did an amazing job and the volunteers were great.

Thanks for such an informative weekend, Podcamp 2013!

Content was worth its proverbial 'weight in gold'! Only trick is finding the right content for you at each hour.

I'll have major jet lag, just returning from Thailand the night before, but I wouldn't miss it.

Drat. Have come down with a severe deadline & will be spending the weekend glued to my keyboard instead of having fun at PodCamp!

Yes, will probably make it on both days. Quick Q: How do I find the times of the sessions? I can find the listings only here: http://2013.podcamptoronto.com/...

  Same here. How does the sessions lineup work?

  Honestly I have no idea. This will be my first PodCamp as well. The schedule should be made available this week -- it's usually a last-minute thing, as most unconferences are.

Excited to go as well! Never been to PodCamp - seems like they cover a lot of content.. Curious to know how everything is scheduled. Can anyone explain what an "unconference" is from a PodCamp experience? Finding what they say on their site to be a little vague. Are there any particular rules or requirements in order to attend the discussions?

  Hey Mario, there are no rules or requirements for attending the conference. You attend the sessions you're interested in attending, and that's pretty much it.

  HI Karen, we've been given the go ahead by the Podcamp organizers to record whatever we want, as long as we get written permission + release in creative commons. We'll let folks know when stuff is available. :)

  You're not alone. This will be my first Podcamp. I've been meaning to attend for the last three years, but never had a justifiable reason to go. We'll be newbies together!

Yes! Can hardly wait. I'm a writer, editor and soon-to-be official graphic designer, specializing in designing, editing and writing for the web. Also, just about 6 months into working with WordPress, I have lots to learn, and some to share!
