There is still so much that remains to be done to rebuild a once beautiful city full of great people, culture, food and music. Count me in to help! Also, back when the initial disaster happened Linden Lab donated 2 Second Life sims (named Big Easy, which contains a recreation of parts of the quarter, and Biloxi) to host charity relief efforts. These 2 sims still stand today and there are a few of us that still caretake them and host New Orleans/Katrina relief focused charity events there. We would be more than happy to have any podcamp New Orleans virtual events there. The podcamp rpirit and the vision of the New Orleans one's fundraising events going towards relief efforts fits in completely with what those sims stand for. :) I also totally think this is a great idea.

I invested 6 months of my life in NOLA, and due to the rules and regs of FEMA.. I was not as effective as I wanted to be, this will give me a chance to be more effective from here at home. Fantabulous IDEA! I look forward to helping out the rest of the team... Thanks Dani! for posting this on the network! Michael TRg I am all for it!

Well actually I've already been working on that. I may already have a venue and I've been working with some local bloggers who are going to put me in touch with some local podcasters. Chris we need to get in touch soon but I'm on an information diet for a week so I'll contact you around mid-week next week.
