Thyself, do it!

Day Two

Photo by Steve RhodesAnother action packed day at Webzine is in full swing. The videologgers show here entertained the crowd with a special Webzine reel and had a real-time video ichat conversation with another vlogger in some country, which I can’t remember. The Neighborhood Blogging panel is currently generating some interest. Still a couple more hours before this Webzine comes to a happy conclusion.

    I noticed 3 of 4 were wearing pseudo-intellectual glasses. Interesting…..This genre could be beneficial to the perscription glasses market.

NOW ONLINE: The Webzine Wiki

WEBZINE is a real world, face-to-face celebration of independent publishing on the Internet. It's part panel discussions and speakers, part workshops and much freeform collaboration, schmoozing and after-party boozing. The panel discussions aim to inspire, the workshops are hands-on forums of learning and the Master's Lounge is the unstructured place to share knowledge, ideas and URLs. DIY to its core, Webzine is rooted in zine culture and the love of making our own media.

INSPIRE: Panel Discussions & Speakers

Two days of panel discussions and presentations from speakers covering a micro gamut of the independent publishing landscape. Hear from people who are turning mainstream media on it's head through self-reporting, culture jamming, citizen journalism, experimenting with new forms of audio and video broadcasting and of course, sticking it to the Man.

LEARN: Workshops

Inspiration becomes creation when you make the tools and tricks work for you. Learn from leaders and creators of open source publishing tools, podcasts and video blogs. Step it up a notch by learning how to tailor your message, perfect your content with proper internet architecture and this new thing called microformats.

SHARE: Master's Lounge

We would be lying to you horribly if we tried to tell you that we've covered everything and everyone there is to know in the world of independent online publishing. The Lounge is a place where you can share your ideas, project, URL or whatever you happen to be working on with fellow allies and future friends. This area will be an open, self-selecting and self-scheduled space equipped with a digital projector and a round table. Gather 'round and exchange knowledge and contact info.

Online tickets for Webzine 2005 went for an amazingly low price of $22 for the whole shebang. Day passes were $13 in advance. That's less than 1% the cost of some other well known annual conferences, all without the guilt, grime or starch.
