Checking into the Podcast Hotel

Any guesses as to why I'm going? :) The Seattle event at the Triple Door will draw on the city's thriving indie music scene and core concentration of bloggers, podcasters and technologists who will discuss mobile culture, copyright issues and how art and commerce intersect in podcasting and video podcasts. We'll hear from music executives, getting their take on what podcasting means for the future of indie culture and mass media. We'll address podcast promotions, distribution opportunities and the methods for reaching people who are spread across a million different micro communities. We'll get the participants to create podcasts, setting up studio demonstrations to help people get started. At night, we will get together to record local music, which we will then promote as podcasts. Additionally, the Podcast Hotel operates an online network where any musician from around the world may submit their music, which we then play on KSSX, a podcast station, and sponsor of the Podcast Hotel. The goal is to show indie musicians and others how they can increase their reach by using a simple, democratic technology - podcasts.
