Podcamp Ireland is 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.
Neville Hobson, co-author of How to Do Everything with Podcasting and co-host of the highly successful FIR podcast will be with us
