I had a chance to catch up with Cameron Reilly today, El Commandante of The Podcast Network, after the weekend of the first Australian Podcamp. Cam is calling today CEO Club, because we chatted about a wide variety of startup and 2.0 topics, as well as grabbed a few beers and ate pizzas and gelato. You know, the sort of things that CEO 2.0 types get up to on a Monday.

A lot of what we talked about can be summed up in Cam’s post from last night. Much of which got me thinking — something Cam is adept at.
In the last 12 months I’ve really eased back the personal brand and getting involved in conversations because I have been focusing on Scouta, and other personal endeavors. But, it’s about time I jumped back in the ring, and I’m aiming to really start to stir up conversations from here on in.
I’m also in the process of putting together a video podcast with Grum. We aim to make the first one in the next two weeks, which Grum is under the impression will be the beta, and won’t be uploaded. I’m a rough around the edges, get it out, start the conversation, beta as a one point zero, type of guy, so I plan to convince him to release it anyway
. So stay tuned for that.
This weekend Perth held Australia’s first Podcamp. It was a roaring success, with a huge turn out, great sessions, great feedback, and much fun had by all.
We had a number of people come across to share the event, including Cameron Reilly (The Podcast Network), Nick Hodge (Microsoft), Stilgherrian (Internet and Media Consultant), and Duncan Riley (Techcrunch etc.) made a trip up from the south.
Personally I’d like to thank EVERYONE who helped and attended. The event wouldn’t have happened without everybody voting for the event to happen in Perth, and also it a *camp literally needs everyones involvement to be a success. So well done all.
