WordCamp NYC 2010 is officially on the calendar this year and I’m looking forward to spending some time my fellow bloggers and developers.
WordCamp NYC 2010 will bring together the New York community of WordPress-loving web publishers and developers the weekend of October 16, 2010 at Baruch College.
Ticket sales will open mid-September, but for now, mark your calendars!
The call for speakers was announced yesterday and I put my proposal (below) in just a few minutes ago (offering some backstory and elaboration to a past post).
I can’t wait to see you all there.
Proposed Topic:
“Learning to Love WordPress: The Story of Me Pulling My Head Out of my A**”Description:
Once upon a time (about when PHP 5 came around) I found myself discovering the wonderful land of enterprise development. ‘Patterns! Abstraction! Architecture!’ I would proudly profess to the neophytes who learned from me. Whenever the topic of WordPress came up, I’d point and laugh at the amateur who would dare bring such a topic up during an adult’s conversation. ‘I could write a blogging system 100x better using my own framework…’ It wasn’t long before I came to the realization of what actually matters in the real world: software that creates value simply by working. Oh yeah, I never got around to writing that blog either…
