130606pirillo2Are you ready to put your life on camera? Our guest this week on the GeekWire radio show is Chris Pirillo of LockerGnome fame. He’s organizing an event this weekend in Seattle called VloggerFair, bringing together top vloggers from around the Internet, and anyone else involved with or interested in the trend of video diaries.

We talk about Pirillo’s own move into vlogging, the equipment he uses and the practical aspects such as production time and how he handles the privacy implications for people in his life, including his wife and parents.

VloggerFair starts today at Terminal 5 in Seattle. Tickets are still available, and GeekWire readers and listeners can use the code geekwire for a 50 percent discount.

Check out this previous column by Monica Guzman for an inside glimpse into the world of vloggers. Here’s the latest episode of Pirillo’s vlog to give you a sense for what it’s about.

We start the news segment by talking about one of the more fun stories of the week, the plan by AppSumo founder Noah Kagan of Austin to rent a mansion in tony Clyde Hill in the Seattle region for a week this summer, bringing his team and other startup entrepreneurs to escape the heat while they get some business and coding done.

And of course, with Chris Pirillo in the studio, we discuss Microsoft’s Windows 8, Outlook’s arrival on Windows RT, the Windows 8.1 overhaul, and the infamous struggle by Pirillo’s dad to adjust to the Microsoft’s new operating system.

App of the Week: Adobe Kuler for iPhone.
