Want to learn more about blogging, websites and SEO? PodCamp Toronto 2014, a gathering of digital, creative and tech professionals, is returning to Ryerson University on February 22-23, 2014. The free “unconferences” feature a facilitator, but are participant-driven. Sessions include a diverse group from the new media community including writers, developers, bloggers, designers, podcasters and photographers sharing their knowledge. Over 1,000 people attended PodCamp Toronto last year.

Par­tic­i­pants at Pod­Camp agree to exer­cise the Law of Two Feet, which means if they are not learning or contributing to a session, they must move on to another discussion. Par­tic­i­pants also cross-pollinate ideas by spread­ing dis­cus­sion ideas as they go. In addi­tion to lots of con­ver­sa­tion in the halls, we always have a vibrant Twit­ter stream of ideas emerg­ing from sessions.

Below are some of the PodCamp Toronto discussions. Sessions are free, but you must register online.
