<p><a href="http://www.podtech.net/home/4663/video-prsa-live-qa-from-whats-hot-and-whats-not-in-2008">In a separate video this panel took questions</a> from the audience, which mostly made up hundreds of PR folks in Silicon Valley.</p>
<p>Of course I was only half joking in this headline. Kara and Rob did a much better job than I did (they should, Kara works for DowJones and Rob works for BusinessWeek) and the panel was a lot of fun. Hopefully I didn&#8217;t say too many things that&#8217;ll show up on Valleywag over the weekend.</p>
