Going to Podcamp NYC Friday night and Saturday - April 6th / April 7th

Posted by Marshall on April 05, 2007 | Link It

I'm going to Podcamp NYC this weekend and there's actually an Unofficial Guide to PodCamp NYC (Download the PDF - 2.6 MB) you can download if you want to follow the conference proceedings.

Podcamp NYC is being held at the New Yorker Hotel, the same place as New Life Expo is held, and I have been to several conferences at the New Yorker.

And the nice thing, above it all, about PodCamp NYC is it's free and it's called the "Un-Conference".

If anyone is going to Podcamp that reads Webmetricsguru.com, please post a comment to this post - perhaps we'll get a chance to meet.

Botanicalls - Your House Plants Can Send Twitter MessagesCenterNetworks January 6, 2009
<p> <a href="http://www.botanicalls.com/"><img border="0" align="left" width="200" src="http://static.centernetworks.com/botanicallsleft.png" alt="botanicalls" height="70"></a>NY-based <a href="http://www.botanicalls.com/">Botanicalls</a> offers a service that lets your house plants talk to you. Basically your plants can tell you when they need water, sun, food, etc. The service explores the relationship between humans and their plants. They offer a DIY kit that you hook into your ethernet network. After the connections are made, that's when the Twitter magic takes over! </p> <p> The kit has to be soldered together but apparently it only takes an hour. I think they would sell more kits if they found a local electrician to do the soldering for a few dollars if the customer wants their kit completely assembled. </p> <p> Here's an example <a href="http://twitter.com/pothos">plant on Twitter</a>. Here's a demo of what Botanicalls does and how it works: </p> <p align="center"> <embed src="http://www.viddler.com/player/30a2df62/" width="545" height="451" allowScriptAccess="never" allowFullScreen="true" name="viddler_30a2df62" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed> </p> <p><a href="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~a/4lnnt5v4fISGuyWt25E0IFWexM8/a"><img src="http://feedads.googleadservices.com/~a/4lnnt5v4fISGuyWt25E0IFWexM8/i" border="0" ismap></a></p><div> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=A1GJuZOS"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?i=A1GJuZOS" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=z1MxhyCX"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?i=z1MxhyCX" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=yjxTUZ50"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?d=52" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=fdBkpJLt"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?d=131" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=ysv7bGqs"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?d=159" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=QCfyaBJn"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?d=160" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=rEsAacWE"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?d=158" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=WxhUOa2k"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?i=WxhUOa2k" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?a=wasmv2Tc"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/Centernetworks-?i=wasmv2Tc" border="0"></a> </div><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Centernetworks-/~4/tGi7e2m5PFA" height="1" width="1">

Blogg.io - Connecting Bloggers And MarketersKillerStartups.com - all January 6, 2009
<br>What it does<br><br>Self-touted as “a pipeline between top marketers and top bloggers”, Blogio is a new online destination that intends to bring these parties together, and enable them to interact in a direct manner. <br> <br>As far as marketers are concerned, Blogio gives them access to the top100 bloggers within every given industry. These bloggers are measured employing an algorithm of its own. <br> <br>On the other hand, bloggers have ready access to relevant materials and contents, and these are presented to them according to the interests that they expressed beforehand. Something that is strongly emphasized online is that Blogio is not a pay to post program, but rather a new model that hopes to give bloggers a ready chance to improve the quality of their contents, in a dynamic way. <br> <br>The inspiration behind such a service is providing a financial model providing marketers and bloggers the chance to come up with a more fluid relationship, and (ultimately) give the blogging movement as a whole added oomph. That is certainly a very commendable objective, and all the elements for a successful web service are firmly into place. Pay the site a visit in order to draw your own conclusions.<br><br>In their own words<br><br>“Blogio is a pipeline between top marketers and top Bloggers.”<br><br>Why it might be a killer<br><br>Any tool that gives a better edge to the blogosphere is more than welcome by all concerned parties.<br><br>Some questions<br><br>How much can you earn through this system?<br><br>Link: <a href="http://www.blogg.io">http://www.blogg.io</a><br>Our Review: <a href="http://www.killerstartups.com/Web20/blogg-io-connecting-bloggers-and-marketers">http://www.killerstartups.com/Web20/blogg-io-connecting-bloggers-and-marketers</a><br><br> <div> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=jGTkrsH3"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?d=41" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=sovWOtwk"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?d=52" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=no9NVma7"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?i=no9NVma7" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=lS4fGdVH"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?i=lS4fGdVH" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=EOWDbHi0"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?d=43" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?a=ssBle9Ip"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/killerstartups/BkQV?i=ssBle9Ip" border="0"></a> </div><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/killerstartups/BkQV/~4/fIGZRJqx4yE" height="1" width="1">

Will the Recession Mean More Traffic Tickets?TalkLeft January 6, 2009

Will the Recession Mean More Traffic Tickets?TalkLeft January 6, 2009
<p>Local governments generally deny that they use traffic tickets to raise revenue, but two economists who reviewed tickets issued in North Carolina <a href="http://www.stltoday.com/stltoday/business/stories.nsf/yourmoney/story/7788F79C1BEA1C52862575360005B4AD?OpenDocument">drew conclusions</a> that tend to confirm a common suspicion: traffic tickets are more about generating dollars than public safety.</p> <blockquote>Traffic tickets go up significantly when local government revenue falls, they found. Their study showed for the first time evidence of how "local governments behave, in part, as though traffic tickets are a revenue tool to help offset periods of fiscal distress." ... <p>Controlling for other factors, a 1 percentage point drop in local government revenue leads to a roughly .32 percentage point increase in the number of traffic tickets in the following year, a statistically significant connection.</p></blockquote> <p>Rising unemployment rates also correlate with increased ticketing. As the recession pinches local budgets, expect more traffic citations to be issued. The lesson: drive carefully, don't roll through stop signs, and invest in a good radar detector.</p><div> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=XGJFQuuw"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=41" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=XQjn097y"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=43" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=LK5h7MjM"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?i=LK5h7MjM" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=IPFBwJWW"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=50" border="0"></a> <a href="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?a=Tm886ZYz"><img src="http://feedproxy.google.com/~f/TalkleftThePoliticsOfCrime?d=52" border="0"></a> </div>
