			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Leave it to the freakishly tall Megan McCarthy of Valleywag to impugn our stature at BoomTown.</p>
<p><img src='http://kara.allthingsd.com/files/2007/09/16.jpg' alt='munchkin' class='centered'/></p>
<p><a href="http://valleywag.com/tech/lifecasters/everybody-run-away-streaming-its-karatv-302152.php">In her post late last week</a> that I missed (I was traveling and therefore not aware of her cruel, cruel taunts), she pointed with dread to a recent promise I made to try out a new wearable camera I saw at the TechCrunch40 conference earlier in the week, a la Justin Kan of Justin.tv.</p>
<p>Writes McCarthy:</p>
<blockquote><p>One thing to keep in mind about this new development: Swisher, unlike Kan, is tiny&#8211;about 5&#8242;2&#8243;, if that. Any hat-camera she wears will be eye-level with Silicon Valley&#8217;s chest. We look forward to watching her conversations with Walt Mossberg&#8217;s sweater.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>First off, I am 5&#8242;2&#8243; (really!!) and not a &#8220;little person&#8221; as one VC once called me.</p>
<p>Second, Walt never wears sweaters.</p>
<p>And third: Chest-level was the plan, if you must know!</p>
<p>Silicon Valley&#8217;s chest=big traffic!</p>
<p>Or as Valleywag overlord Owen Thomas added to the post in note wherein he also harasses my innocent employee, <a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com">Digital Daily&#8217;s John Paczkowski</a>:</p>
<p><em>Rowr</em>.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>While we subjected our stalwart <a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com">John Paczkowski of Digital Daily</a> to the onerous and potentially mind-numbing task of live-blogging Jason Calacanis&#8217;s and Michael Arrington&#8217;s TechCrunch40 conference, BoomTown broke some news (on the <a href="http://kara.allthingsd.com/20070917/yahoo-zimbra/">Yahoo-Zimbra $350 million deal</a>), wandered around and basically schmoozed.</p>
<p>In addition, cupcakes were had.</p>
<p>(The day also included a pricey payback lunch for a bet I lost about News Corp.&#8217;s acquisition of Dow Jones.)</p>
<p>Thus, here is my video on the event that featured tech start-ups, Web start-ups and&#8211;did we mention?&#8211;more tech and Web start-ups.</p>
<p>And, as usual, <a href="http://scobleizer.com/">Scoble</a>!</p>
