WordCamp Is This Saturday

WordCamp

Just a reminder that WordCamp, an all day long WordPress conference (the first of its kind), takes place this Saturday, August 5th at the Swedish American Hall in San Francisco. All of the people who work for Automattic (WordPress’ parent company) will be in San Francisco for the first time ever, along with a bunch of WordPress developers and bloggers. Here are some of the session ideas that have been proposed so far.

In addition to being one of the sponsors of WordCamp, all of Laughing Squid Web Hosting will be in town as well (Laughing Squid is one of the web hosts recommend by WordPress), including our Support Ninja Jason Laskodi and our Chief Tentacled Officer, Barry Abrahamson, who is also WordPress’ system administrator (Happy belated Sys Admin Day Barry!). Rumor has it that Laughing Squid will be working out of Ritual Coffee Roasters on Friday (that is if we can get a table). So as you can tell, the relationship between Laughing Squid and WordPress is very close, which is why we are so exicted about this Saturday’s WordCamp.

Speaking of WordPress news, version 2.0.4 was just released and Automattic also just hired rockstar designer Bryan Veloso, who has worked as a designer on Facebook and Flock.

Please read our Comment Guidelines before leaving a comment:

Moderation: Because of comment spam issues, all comments are manually approved, so if your comment is approved it may take a while for your comment to appear on this blog post.

Name & Website Required: Due to rampant abuse, we are no longer posting anonymous comments. Please list your real name and provide a link to your website. If you don't have a website, then use a link to your account on Twitter, Flickr or some other form of web presence. With very few exceptions, comments that do not refernce include an actual name or url will not be approved.

Also when we ask for your name we mean your actual name, not Discount Car Products or some other attempt at spam or lame SEO.

Be Civil: Irrelevant, obnoxious or abusive comments will not be approved. Let's keep things civil and on topic. Basically what we are saying, if your comment does not add to the conversation, it will not be approved.

Spam: Spam comments in any form will not be approved. We also do not approve comments that left for the sole purpose of posting a link.

Corrections: If you want to point out a typo or correction, please email us instead. Typo or correction comments will not be approved since they are pretty much useless once they are corrected and then only tend to confuse things.

Gravatars: If you would like a Gravatar to show up with your comment? Just sign-up for an account and any comment with your email address will display your Gravatar.
