I'll confirm what Steve has said. I just joined the group not long ago as I have started www.socialmediasphere.tv and wanted a place to learn more about this crazy video world which I am falling in love with. I am the conference director and the social media director for Blog World and New Media

Hi everyone: Hey Amani - Those episodes are GREAT!! Community TV AT ITS FINEST. You should be on a Public Access channel if you aren't already. In fact, after seeing that interview with Tessa, I added onto the Independent Media section of the new message board for my The Left Wing

I'm not sure it's a question of nobody wanting to run it. I think it's more a question of people not wanting to travel halfway across the country/world to attend a vlogging event. You know that I love this community, and so I'm not being negative about it. Just being realistic about what

Hi. The first thing to say is how wonderful I think Steve Garfield and his commitment to community is. He is such an asset to anyone who knows him and any community that he is a part of. I don't know him too well, but he is clearly one of the most valuable connectors around, and is a model for

These are some great points Jeffrey and I am going to make sure that I voice them to the the leadership at Blog World and New Media Expo. To the extent that we are replacing Vloggercon or any other I'm not sure that is our intent. The idea behind putting a vloggercon type event together at Blog

Hey Rupert, thanks for reminding me I still have 2 planeĀ  plane tix to St Louis for the event Bill Streeter was going to do last summer. Nothing like pissing away $500. JC --- On Thu, 5/14/09, Rupert rup...@fatgirlinohio.org wrote: From: Rupert rup...@fatgirlinohio.org Subject: Re:

Between Bill and I (I grew up in St. Louis), I wager we can make that $500 worth every penny. St. Louis can be an insanely great town, but you have to know where to go. 2009/5/14 John Coffey jimmycrackhead2...@yahoo.com Hey Rupert, thanks for reminding me I still have 2 plane plane tix to

You're welcome! I only just escaped a financial scalping myself. I was scolding myself for not having got my act together to buy tickets earlier, then it turned out for the best. Same with another trip last year. Could have lost about $1500 altogether. On 14-May-09, at 10:04 AM, John

Thanks, Jim. I totally appreciate what you're saying, and thank you for taking what I had to say in the spirit it was given. There is a market for a well-done web video event that listens and serves the many openly-stated needs out there, but I think any association with Vloggercon wouldn't serve
