Just a thought for my fellow Americans – how about cheering yourselves up with a national holiday?

It was an entirely different kind of new media affair from PodCamps EU, UK or Ireland. Three days long, very populated, highly sponsored, over-organised, situated in a huge convention centre in the old dockland area of South Boston in a remote, cavernous modern building devoid of any decent nutrition, much of the presentation was well-meaning and educational, but the event was nonetheless mostly about people self-consciously attempting to produce meaningful content which will vie with the Big Boys and wondering when that is actually going to happen. (Stage whisper: not any time soon…) The highlight was Lolsaurs, in which the lunatics took over the asylum.

I kept a pretty low profile, which suited me this time, and was pleased just to hang out, catch up with old friends, and make new friends.

This is a 54 minute camera phone movie, shot on my (now elderly) Sony Ericsson k800i, best served with a squeeze of lemon.
