See you in Chicago!

Posted on

Where exactly has this month gone? I looked up and realized that in just over a week, I’ll be hopping a plane to attend WordCamp Chicago! I’m really excited! The last time I was in Chicago was December of last year for a different conference and on the day I left it was a whopping 4 degrees outside. The 10 day forecast says that it’ll be partly cloudy with a high of 75! Heck Yeah!

Moderate weather aside, WordCamp Chicago looks like it’s going to be a great one. They have an outstanding list of speakers lined up! I see that there are less than 100 tickets left, so you should go and register now!

From what I hear the WordPress community in Chicago is top notch. I’m looking forward to meeting a ton of new people and saying hello to some old friends! If you see me walking around, definitely come and say hello! You can also hit me up for a sticker or two.

9seeds at CMS Expo

Posted on

So just when you thought you had us figured out, we switch things around. 9seeds at a non-WordCamp event? Yes, it’s true!

Shayne will be presenting at the CMS Expo in Chicago on Tuesday, May 4th. This is the first year that WordPress has a track at CMS Expo and we’re very excited to be a part of it. Shayne will be presenting “WP Ecommerce and other must-have WordPress plugins”. This presentation will cover (as the title eludes to) must-have plugins for your WordPress site. He will talk about must-have plugins as well as give a live demonstration of each, followed by a Q&A session.

If you’re in the area, you should definitely grab a ticket and plan on learning a lot! There will also be tracks for Drupal, Joomla and Plone platforms as well, so no matter what CMS you’re using, there will be something there for everyone.

9seeds at WordCamp San Francisco

Posted on

Have we told you how much we love WordCamp events? I think we might have, and here we are again…WordCamp San Francisco this weekend! This WordCamp is proving to be a very cool and very large event and we are very excited to be attending.

We are also excited about this event since the whole 9seeds crew will be attending. Living in different cities we don’t see each other as often as we’d like, so times like this are very cool for us to get to hang out! So, if you’re attending make sure and find one of us (or all of us) and say hello and we might just have some free stickers to give away.

Shayne will be at the Genius Bar on Saturday so if you have WordPress questions, make sure and stop by…it’s a great place to get free, useful information about your WordPress site.

The event will take place on Saturday, May 1st at the Mission Bay Conference Center in San Francisco. There will also be an unconference meetup for developer’s on Sunday, May 2nd at Pier 38. You can get more information about this at the WordCamp San Francisco site.

See you there!

9seeds at WordCamp Orange County

Posted on

It’s no secret, we are big fans of WordCamp events. We are even bigger fans of the people that pour their heart in to making the events happen. When we found out Brandon Dove was putting together WordCamp Orange County, we knew we wanted to be a part of it any way we could. So it was a no-brainer for us to sponsor the event.

We are also thrilled to have the opportunity to help out as presenters. John Hawkins will be giving a presentation on beginning plugin development. If you are interested in writing your own plugins but aren’t sure exactly where to start, be sure to catch John’s presentation on Saturday.

We’ve heard that there may be an informal Genius Bar where attendees can get some one-on-one assistance with their WordPress site. John and Todd will both be hanging around all day Saturday and will be happy to answer questions. We’ll also have a bunch of 9seeds stickers, so track us down and ask for one.

We know first hand how much work goes in to putting on a WordCamp. Congratulations to Brandon and his team. We’re excited to be part of what is going to be a great event!

Orange County WordCamp is taking place on April 24th at UC Irvine. Tickets are $40 and get you a T-shirt, lunch and a full day of WordPress fun. Don’t miss it, buy your tickets now!
