Confessions of a Social Tools Architect

I was quite surprised to find a quick message from Steve Garfield in my Inbox alerting me to a new video he made from our night Beercasting in Cambridge.
Steve has assembled several pictures he took with the published Beercasts and the end result is something I’ve been thinking about for some time but haven’t been able to put together yet. Check it out below.

Still trying to finalize things for San Antonio and Dallas. There’s some traction already for Dallas, but San Antonio is pretty quiet.
Anyone out there? Bueller? Bueller?
Drop me a line to let me know where you are and where you want to go.

The Austin Beercast is almost upon us and we’ve got some great things planned. I’ve been working with Amy from the Independence Brewery and it looks like there could very well be some free suds for us all to down and then some drink specials to follow.

The Ginger Man

For anyone out there from the Boston area that want’s to hear how Beercasting really works, here’s your second change.
The Boston Beercasting Squad is now live. It was a brief show since we weren’t completely setup but it was entertaining and educational all at the same time.

Hello everybody,
If you are in the Cambridge area, I am openly inviting you to attend the Thursday night meeting at the Berkman Center. Here are the details on that:
Podcast 101 at the Berkman Thursday Blog Group

Tonight’s session will cover the basics of Podcasting. To top that off, I will be trying to arrange to either do a Beercast there or we’re going to head over to a pub afterwards to give it a whirl with the attendees.
Hope to see you there.

Tuesday night, Feb 1st, I will be hosting the NYC Beercasting Squad once again after many weeks on the road. I have to send a special thank you out to all my cronies and diehards that have been keeping the spirit alive and blame mother nature for making it so difficult for people to get out there.
Tomorrow’s a special invitation for anyone that’s not made it out before. The weather has finally let up a bit and it’s not so blasted terrible out. I’ll be there bright and early, about 7:30PM to get things in motion.
I’ve learned some new tricks for the show while on the road and it will be fun to experiment with my buddies at home.
See you there.

The Portland Beercast was quite interesting and I am glad I got to be here to meet with a group of really interesting and fun people. Now, I’m looking forward to heading home for a few days before heading back out on the road. Expect the Portland files some time tomorrow.
The tour is about to ripple in ways I wasn’t really expecting but that’s the way things go. As of right now, Florida is going to have to be delayed until March at the earliest (sorry about that). Texas is now centered in the target and here’s how that looks:
I’ve been contacted by a number of great people in all of these cities and I’m hoping to start to coordinate with them on getting the Beercasts in order.
Beyond Texas, I’m planning to return to the west coast for several reasons, least of which being attending Northern Voice in Vancouver and doing a Beercast there.
Check back for updates soon.
