Podcamp Boston: Please, don’t let Leopard take over
Also of interest: Leesa Barnes talks Podcamp Toronto
Apple just announced the release date for OS X 10.5, Leopard, and guess what? It’s right in the middle of Podcamp Boston.
I have a lot to say about this, but let’s keep it brief instead: Don’t let this company, the one that took a cash-grab at podcasting, bring the hype into our community event.
Yes, we’ve been waiting forever, and yes, it’ll have great new features, but please. So many people have worked hard to make this event huge and successful– so, I beg of all of you, during this weekend, let’s talk about us, and what we can do, not them. Ok?
Pssssst, are you new here? You might want to pick up my RSS feed, it'll let you know when I put up new stuff. Thanks!

Somehow I don’t think you have to worry about that Julien. I’ve decided to change my whole presentation to the power of J.J. Abrams in your honor
Amen. I love my Mac, but I’m starting to get sick of all the hype around it.
fuck that, julien. i’m changing my talk to: “how apple will save the world with itunes (leopard version!)”
Julien, what was that release date for Leopard again?
I don’t want to miss out on that!
If Apple ponies up some cash as a sponsor or dumps a truck full of Leopard at the doorstep, I won’t say no, but I can assure you that there will be no free rides for them or any other company at PodCamp, and if anyone tries, I’m going to make sure their next commercial is directed by JJ Fucking Abrams.
