If you are within driving distance of New York, and are free on April 25th and 26th, you could consider dropping in for Podcamp NYC 2.0, a free “unconference”, on podcasting, blogging, social networks, and new media.

From their site: "Podcamp NYC is focused on educating participants on how to use, implement and share all new media tools including, podcasts, videocasts, blogs, Second Life, Facebook, and YouTube. The conference is FREE to attend and you’re a “participant” versus an “attendee” at our event."
