Kathy Sierra, we stand with you

   Posted by: Jeffrey    in Power & Positionality

Kathy Sierra, who I have never met, is among the strongest people I know. Having been threatened physically and sexually and having the strength and fortitude to publicly admit and begin confronting this . . . wow.

She stands for what the United Nations proclaims in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights:

"Whereas disregard and contempt for human rights have resulted in barbarous acts which have outraged the conscience of mankind, and the advent of a world in which human beings shall enjoy freedom of speech and belief and freedom from fear and want has been proclaimed as the highest aspiration of the common people, . . . "

Kathy, follow your beliefs and keep standing tall. Thank you for showing how to best not allow your voice to be silenced.

PodCamp NYC - New Venue

   Posted by: Jeffrey    in Technology

PodCamp NYC has changed its venue. It is still scheduled for Saturday, Aoril 6, but it will now be at the New Yorker Hotel, at 34th St. and 8th Ave. I have never been in this hotel (that was recently renovated, I understand), so this will be a great experience. While I did live nearer the New School (the former location and a more interesting area), I am still planning to attend and soak up everything about podcasting. To register for free, follow this link.

I have done a podcast with a colleague of mine at Phronetic International, so I am looking forward to learning more to do an even better job with more of them!
