Welcome to the PodCampIreland Wiki.

There have been a number of podcasting events held in Ireland already, mostly as part of other events. The purpose of this page is to organise a stand-alone event to promote podcasting in Ireland and to help and encourage people to get started.

Podcamp Ireland will be an unconference. In other words: if you are interested in attending you should understand that it may not happen without your active participation. Everything about an unconference comes from the participants. That includes the topics which will be discussed, the time and place, and even the decision as to whether to hold such an event at all.

So then - it's over to you:

• Follow the progress on PodCamp Ireland by visiting PodCampIreland.com
• Join the discussion at the Irish Podcaster's Group or bring the conversation into your SMS text inbox by joining the podcamp channel on Jaiku. It's free and easy.
• Add your name to the "Attendees" list if you think you would be interested in attending such an event
• What would you like to hear and see at Podcamp Ireland? What can you offer to do or say at Podcamp Ireland? Add your thoughts to the Ideas list.
• Seriously - it's Over To You! What are you waiting for?

Edit this page! :)

What

We need to hear from YOU about what you would feel inspired to hear about at our first PodCamp Ireland.

Here are some thought starters:

• Audio production and video production
• Publishing and hosting your podcast and video cast
• Promoting your Podcast
• Licenced music/podsafe music
• Social media

Let us know by posting your thoughts here.

Whether you are a newbie to podcasting, blogging and social media or a veteran, we want to make sure that we have content you want to hear about.

And don't be shy about stepping forward as a presenter - that's what the event is all about - for us all to share experiences, share ideas and make new friends.

When

- The first-ever Irish podcamp will be on Saturday, 29 September 2007 in Kilkenny. Discussion here

- It follows PodCampUK (1st/2nd Sep) and Barcamp Galway on 22 September.

- Keola arrives in Cork from Hawaii on September 7 or 8 so the 29th should be good for him, provided he has located permanent housing by then. School semester starts 24th.

Where

- How about somewhere in the midlands so that we're not seen to be Dublin or Cork centric? (Krishna suggests)

- Kilkenny... serviced by regular train and bus service throughout day, 40 minute drive from Waterford, 1hr 30 from Dublin...

Update (24 July) Our first PodCamp Ireland will be taking place in Kilkenny - details of the venue are being finalised
