Almost home
PodCamp Atlanta wrapped Sunday afternoon as a resounding success. As I said to the crowd when I was addressing them as the event was about to close out, if podcasting in the South wasn't on the map going into this past weekend, it sure is now. The people who organized the event deserve far more credit than I can properly express here. I'll have plenty more to post (including pictures) once I finally get home but for now I'm visiting a friend out in the middle of nowhere in rural Georgia. Couldn't be more of a contrast from the Southern California stint that represented the first leg of this trip. Was it just a week ago I was cruising up Pacific Coast Highway? Now I'm driving on roads that are barely paved.
This is my tenth day on the road. Tomorrow I head home. I can't believe I made it through this trip without Apple TV shipping. Thought sure I was going to end up having to pick one up at an Apple Store and do my initial testing from the road.
The first-ever episode of iProng TV should be available later this week. I don't feel like a video podcaster yet but maybe that'll change once the first episode is out there.
So what came of this trip? New friends, new perspectives, new opportunities, new products I can't tell you about yet, and at the risk of overselling it, things have really come into focus for me as I head into my thirtieth birthday in two weeks. Can't wait to see what the next thirty years bring. Or for that matter, the next thirty days. Or the next thirty minutes...
