Inspired by the Success of Rock and Roll Fantasy Camps, This New Venture Offers Web Enthusiasts a Way to Hang Out With Famous Internet Pundits

San Helifino, CA /DenounceNewswire/ -- 28 June 2003 -- Did you ever wonder what it would be like to live in the world of Internet Punditry? Do you dream of meeting and learning from the legends of the web? Is there a blog article in your head that you would like to bring to life? Do you want to spend five days and nights following pundits around to see what they do?

IPFC, Inc. announces the launch of the Internet Pundit Fantasy Camp, and a chance to be among the presence of such luminaries as Jason Kottke, James Lileks, Doc Searls, Glenn Reynolds, Esther Dyson, Cory Doctorow, Christopher Locke, Clay Shirky, Xeni Jardin, Scott Rosenberg, Joi Ito, Marc Canter, John Dvorak, Dan Gillmor, Andrew Sullivan, Dave Winer, and David Weinberger.

For five days and five nights, campers get to observe these and other notable internet pundits up close and personal:

  • Dining near them for breakfast, lunch, and dinner
  • Watching them as they write their blogs and news articles
  • Small group instruction from celebrity internet stars
  • Observe pundits taking copious pictures with their digital cameras
  • Meet their cats, dogs, and other pets (availability subject to change)
  • Read newspapers and magazines in the same waiting rooms as the pundits
  • See pundits glance at their watches
  • Listen in as pundits talk on their cell phones and to each other.
  • Stay up late at night surfing the web, sharing findings with pundits, receiving their commentary
  • Exchange emails with pundits (guaranteed replies!)
  • Join internet superstars in a special Tuesday morning cocktail party (time, date, and locale subject to change)
  • Enjoy a personalized pundit tour of a Fry's Electronics store (time permitting)
  • Receive personalized pundit commentary on the software and documents present on your own notebook computers.
  • Receive a personal jpeg of a signed, personally autographed photograph of the pundit of your choice (limit one per camper)

Modeled after the successful Rock and Roll Fantasy Camps, which let mere mortals jam along with famous rock stars, the Intenet Pundit Fantasy Camp is destined to become a favorite experience for internet enthusiasts across the country. With sessions opening this summer in New York, Washington, San Francisco, Seattle, and Chicago, there's never been a better opportunity to rub shoulders with giants of internet punditry.
