Be more than just an attendee at PodCamp Pittsburgh this year: Become a PCPGH5 volunteer!
Volunteers are needed to help with registration, food set up and clean up, hallway monitoring (pointing people in the right direction), and new this year: chat room monitors.
Each session will be live-streamed with a chat room for virtual attendees and we need someone in each session to monitor the chat room for questions and comments from viewers to make sure everyone can interact with the presentation. Your role as a chat room monitor will help the speaker’s presentation go smoothly and you’ll be able to take a more interactive roll in your favorite sessions.
As a volunteer, you will receive high-fives from the organizers and a really sweet t-shirt that will distinguish you from everyone else.
If you’re interested in volunteering, please sign up on the Google Doc for a time slot. You may not be required to work for the entire time slot, but we want to make sure we have enough people on hand at all times.
Volunteers will be invited to a special PodCamp Prep Evening on Wednesday, September 15 where you can pick up your t-shirt, help stuff VIP swag bags, and assist in getting our print materials ready for the event.
If you have any questions about volunteering for PCPGH5, please contact Jennie.

Do you ever wonder what your favorite PodCamp Pittsburgh Organizers are up to during the off-season?! Creating and developing new podcasts, of course!
Now entering their 7th week, Mike Sorg and Rob de la Cretaz are dissecting the week’s tech news on their very own podcast, AwesomeCast.
AwesomeCast was originally created by Rob and a friend several years ago and served as documentation of their awesome conversations. Thankfully, Rob kept the domain name even after life became too busy to keep up with regular episodes.
Mike and Rob are keeping yinz informed with special guests each week who agree, disagree, crack jokes, take shots at each other, and serve up a fresh perspective on all things tech.
AwesomeCast streams live with video and chat from the Sorgatron Media studio every Tuesday evening from 7:00 p.m. until 8:00 p.m., Eastern time. You can also pick up the audio version the next morning on iTunes if you’d rather listen on your way to work on Wednesday like I do.
These guys are all over the Internet in all the usual places. Check out awesomecast.com for all the details.
