Hi crew-
I spoke to Giulia this morning. She is planning on meeting with Kelly's today to work out the details of the after party so we can start promoting that.
I'm getting radio silence on my request for sponsorships. If anyone knows of a company that would be interested in sponsoring the event that will really help us with covering some up-front costs.
(If we don't get sponsors we probably won't be able to order t-shirts)
I think everyone knows that we have settled on the #pcct hashtag. Registrations are trickling in. Hopefully everyone is spreading the word!
Does anyone have ideas on other places we could promote PodCampCT? It would be great to get some media coverage leading up to the event. Jim, did you get any response on your press release?
Jack

Contact Ed Barlett from CT Out & About (www.ctoutandabout.com). You can use my name. All the major news outlets contact him, because he's really got his finger on the pulse of what's going on in CT. While he may not be able to attend (I don't know), I think this is definitely something that you can peak his interest about.

Still working on the media alert distribution. I was out of pocket all weekend and most of Monday, and have been catching up on client work. I'll follow up on the media alert this afternoon. If anyone on this list forwarded to their media contact(s), can you let me know, so we aren't duplicating effort (or seeming uncoordinated)?

Thanks.

Agreed Jim. It's probably best to have you be the media contact and have everyone feed media leads to you.

Jim...

Just got off the phone with Ed Barlett. He said, please call him if you want to throw out the wide net of exposure. I know he's going onto a conference call at 1:30 today, and won't be available til Friday after he makes his call today. His number is 203 738 8371. He wants to help, but you / we will have to follow up with him because he's so insanely busy (but not too busy to help us).

I can reach out to the Community Media Lab folks at New Haven Register.  They would definitely want to be involved.  That's Angi Carter, Ed Stannard, Chris March and also Helen Bennett Harvey.  They were very involved in Social Media Sync.  As was Lisa Miksis from Shore Publishing.
