WordCamp NY this Weekend

Jonathan Dingman — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 21:48:19 +0000

This weekend is WordCamp NY 2008. I have been organizing this event for the past 3 or 4 months now and I’m really excited for it.

We have a great list of speakers lined up and it’s going to be an awesome event.

Matt Mullenweg will be keynoting the event. I have never met Matt, so it will be a first to meet him and hear him speak about The State of WordPress.

Thanks to everyone involved with the event!
