The Vloggies Wrap-Up

PodTech rolled out the red carpet in San Francisco Saturday night for video bloggers from around the country for the first ever Vloggies, a video blog awards ceremony, hosted by Irina Slutsky and Daniel McVicar which took place at the Swedish American Hall and with an after party at Cafe du Nord. Here are my photos of the event.

Winners included Ze Frank’s The Show, Ask A Ninja, Chuck Olsen’s Minnesota Stories, Jet Set Show, Jay Dedman, Ryanne Hodson, Josh Wolf, Rocketboom, Galacticast, blip.tv and many others, with the top honors going to the amazing Alive In Baghdad. Here’s the full list of winners.

   Great photos, Scott! Terrific coverage. On behalf of myself, Irina, Daniel and the entire Podtech family, thsnks to all the great vloggers out there and all those who attended for making the first ever Vloggies ceremony a resounding success. We couldn’t have done it without you! It was a total blowout and a total party and we really enjoyed bringing you all the show.
