Steve Garfield started off the meeting explaining the idea behind Boston Media Makers. Everyone around the table gets a chance to introduce themselves, talk, present a show and tell, or ask a questions. It’s pretty laid back.
Steve showed Joost and then talked about Videoblogging Week 2007.

Seriously, this time I’ll be there, I’ll stay, and I’ll have something worthwhile to say. Well, maybe two out of the three things.

Great meeting, as usual.
I see in the photos that my posture has not improved.
I just realized next month’s meeting happens during the Boston 48 Hour Film Project. I probably won’t be able to make it… unless things are going really well, or really, really, really badly.
