Jonny Goldstein took the time to do a great summary of Vloggercon.
A story in Text and Photos.
I also found out that there are currently 351 videos tagged "Vloggercon" on Blip.tv.
And I bet many people haven’t even posted all their video.
I always dreamed of lots of different people showing their own version of one event.
I wonder what we’ll think of all the documentation next year.
Here’s a link to the video until I actually fix the blog and get it all looking nice again: WATCH HERE

A week has passed since Vloggercon ended. It pretty much consumed my life the last month, and I didn’t know how to post about it. Then I saw Verdi’s recent video.
Vloggercon was pretty amazing time. Why?
Because everyone had ownership of it. We set up a simple structure and allowed for organized chaos to occur. And it was crazy. So many good people making it happen.
But like Verdi, I feel like I experienced very important…and now things got to evolve. I heard so many good ideas and plans. Now in my mind, I want to see them happen. I even started recording these thoughts I heard here. I want us to remember and push forward.
There are casual videobloggers who make and post video. But I also met some people who want to do some crazy crazy stuff. We know that the opportunity is now, and we don’t know there are boundaries. I’m not explaining myself well. Will we be happy if we meet again in a year and nothing has changed? I don’t think so. This is why I’m feeling frustrated. I know we got to get down to it, and it’s going to be a lot of work.
One thing for sure: Vloggercon is not a place for a typical confernce structure. Two days, hour-long sessions, etc. Videobloggers need to hang out and work together. Sit and talk. Time is needed. If we do it again, we need to rent out a church camp where we can stay all week, bring the family, have day-long workshops, and spend time.
Anyway…here are the resources in case you missed the event. Thanks to everyone who helped out.
