Reminder: Podcamp Montreal
Registrations are open! Show up or you owe me a beer. But seriously, Laurent, Sylvain, and Laurent (2), and Michelle are doing a great job with this, particularly since running a bilingual event is a bit more complicated than your usual Podcamp. It should be pretty damn cool.

Alive in Baghdad correspondent killed
Sorry, this is just copied from Hugh’s post, but I have no words for this. (More here.) Alive in Baghdad correspondent Ali Shafeya was killed on December 14th, details are still coming in. He was 24, survived by mom and sister. and: but is that worth even one human’s life? We are still not 100% […]
