Havens Wed, 30 Apr 2008 07:31:03 +0000 http://www.christopherspenn.com/?p=409#comment-1979 Hi Anthony, Lee Gibbons is the CEO of Podango (not Podcamp). If our event was so poorly advertised, how did we get 800 people to show up in Brooklyn on Passover weekend? And in terms of speaking in person before posting on a blog, I only commented here AFTER reading the post with the title about hijacking a table at podcamp. I can understand that if Lee offered to share his table that there would be confusion in regards to our concern about your staying at the table. That makes sense. But filming Whitney in a snarky way and then posting about hijacking means you not only did knowingly stay at the table when the organizers didn't think it was cool, but flaunted it. And here's the end of the discussion for me-you admit in your comment above that you called Whit a bitch. Fact-she was doing her job. Fact-no matter how she approached you, even if you had/have a right to be upset, calling her a bitch means you're not willing to behave in anything resembling a civil manner. There's simply no reason to publicly call Whitney a bitch, period. There is no logic, skewed or otherwise that will answer your calling her a bitch. And here's the folks who agree with me (according to emails, etc. passed around today): Chris Brogan Chris Penn C.C. Chapman -Among others. This event that was so poorly advertised happened to attract a number of the leading voices in new media. Your insult to Whit is an insult to me and to them. You don't seem to care, but fyi. And if you live in the NYC area, I'll meet with you face to face. Or you can call me at: 917-597-3323. I had hoped to talk about this situation privately so we could work out whatever differences we had and clear the air. But the videos and blog posts I saw/read were up BEFORE this post. Hi Anthony,

I was not making a scene, or fuss. Smojo was simply laughing at the fact that the woman (whitney) who was not kind to me once yelled at me like im a 5 year old. I would easily understand all your anger if we were doing something childish or foolish broadcasting. NO we werent if you all kindly go back and watch the rest of our archives on both our channels you will see that not only did I cover the event of podcamp. but I walked around and broadcasted and demonstrated, interviewed the sponsors on cam including the ones whos table we supposedly hijacked. I will gladly ask the CEO of podcamp and bring him here to explain how he instisted that we stay and share a table after I was listening to whitney's orders. Again I would understand your anger If I was yelling back, or making a scene, or refusing to move. We did nothing of the sort. We simply ended up staying because the sponsor insisted we stayed. After I Stated 3 times that no its ok we will gladly move our things. So Joyce if at the rest of the event someone kindly came up to me and said please move your things I would have done so immediately. You can rest assured you will never see me again at any of your events either. None of you had the the maturity to speak to us personally but yet to childishly post on your blogs without confronting them personally about it. So please I will continue to post about how amazingly friendly all you bloggers are on my page please visit and speak to us face to face if you feel so strongly as to what we did was so wrong.

But, once someone who obviously is running the event tells you that indeed it is reserved that should have been the point you would apologize for not knowing and pack up.

End story. And yes, an organizer with far too many responsibilities on her plate I think has the right to make sure everything is in line, including that all spaces are available for a sponsor who paid for them...irregardless of whether they were there at that moment or not. It is just etiquette and anyone with a camera should be even more aware of this...even those live streaming. BTW, I myself have had a channel on Justin.tv for quite awhile, long before it was publicly open to add a channel and this all just throws mud on the brand that Justin, Daniel and crew have worked to build up. Just apologize for misinterpreting the situation and not enquiring a bit more and offer up some kindness to a woman (Whitney) who deserved a bit more considering all she did for the event.
