PodCamp is all about podcasting, and using this medium to reach out to a community.\xa0 Since you and I are runners, and since we all listen to podcasts, you and I are a part of this thing\u2026and since I\u2019m eager to encourage everyone listening to my podcast to start up their own podcast, I thought it would be useful to dedicate today\u2019s episode to what I learned at PodCamp.\nPodCamp is first and foremost about community.\xa0 It\u2019s not about selling a service or a product, it\u2019s all about focusing on building personal relationships with other podcasters.\xa0 Think of it this way; you and I are a part of a running community of new media creators\u2026we listen to running related podcasts listed on Runningpodcast.org and we run with each other as we train for our next big race, or just get some miles in together because it feels good.\xa0 This is our podcasting universe: but there are other worlds than these\u2026other podcast universes that have nothing to do with running: such as marketing, story-telling, science, comedy, news, politics, religion, and any other topic and genre you care to think about.\xa0 It\u2019s here at PodCamp where these universes collide in a good way!\n\xa0\nThank you to Chris Penn who generously spent some time with me during his lunch break to talk about all things podcasting.\xa0 If you\u2019re interested in social networking and marketing (a key element to the topic of podcasting) you need to get to know Chris Penn.\n\xa0\n\xa0\nShow Links:\n\n\n\nLook for a PodCamp near YOU here: \nHere\u2019s the article I mentioned in the show: \n\n\n\n\n\nThe song \u201cGet Over It\u201d by THE Matthew Ebel
