When I read about Podcamp Montreal fromMitch Joel’s blog, I signed up instantly! One of the things I wanted to do while on exchange here in Kingston was to really explore the social media scene and see how different it is from Singapore. What a perfect opportunity!
I’m a little nervous because the official language in Montreal is French (according to Wikipedia) and some of the sessions are held in French, but I’m sure there will be enough English sessions to get by.
It’s happening over the 20th and 21st of September (just three weeks away!) so be prepared to see lots of blogging and Flip videos over that weekend. I just know this is going to be inspiring.

Admittedly I didn’t listen to many podcasts in January, but I’m still going to do this for the month, and there are a few conditions:
- I must have listened to the podcast in January (regardless of when it was actually released)
- The selected podcast can be the most entertaining/informative/educational. Anything goes.
So the winner for last month goes to Jaffe Juice #101 for an excellent Winners and Losers segment covering the whole Scrabulous fiasco by Scrabble and Mattel, as well as Target’s blatant disrespect to the blogging community. On top of that, it was this episode that motivated me to take part in Joseph’s UNM2PNM (Use New Marketing To Prove New Marketing) initiative, where he sends me a copy of his latest book, Join The Conversation, and I provide him a review in return. Sounds fantastic? It is.
Other notable mentions this month:
There’ll be much more nominees for February (I’ve already listened to about 10 podcasts so far), so keep reading for that, or if you’re feeling nice, why not subscribe to my RSS feed to make sure you don’t miss it?
If you agree or disagree with my choice, I’d love to hear from you in the comments below, and alternatively, if you have a podcast you’d like to recommend me to listen to, leave me a comment as well.
