In October 2008 I had the privilege of going to the Apple Reseller Technical Camp outside of Chicago.  Overall, it was a great week and very educational.  However, enough time has passed that the story can be told publicly.

They added a podcast competition to work on in your "spare" time with a team of people whom you have never met before.  The criteria was simple, come up with a team name and put together a 2 minute podcast about the best practice for an item that you pulled out of hat #1, using a prop pulled out of hat #2 and a tag line pulled out of hat #3.  Our team had to do a best practice video about an iPhone, using toilet paper and the tag line "The Party is about to Begin", somewhere in our video.  This video was filmed, produced, and narrated by yours truly.  All of my team members are in the video with a special guest appearance by Todd Dailey, the camp's security speaker.

Our team ended up winning first place with our video and was featured in the Fall 2008 HP Mac-connect Quarterly Newsletter.
