If you:
- wonder what Google Wave is all about,
- want to meet new people who share your interest in technology,
- want to blog, but don’t know where to start,
- wish you knew how to turn that genius idea into an iPhone app,
- love good food, good conversation and have always wanted to play PowerPoint Karaoke,
… you need BarCamp! It’s Saturday, November 14, 8:30 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. at Memphis Academy of Science and Engineering. Breakfast, lunch and snacks are included and we’ve got swag and some cool door prizes you just may win.
I’ll be speaking on Blogging 101. I know it’s a lame title and all, but it’s one of my favorite topics.
We’ll talk about:
- So you’ve decided to blog — what now?
- Get started with WordPress
- Organize your content
- LInks, comments, blogrolls
- Make it cool: plugins, themes and widgets
If you’re way past Blogging 101, you can learn to create an iPhone app, get introduced to Ruby on Rails or explore social platforms for enterprise. The afternoon is filled with core conversations — discussions that everyone can participate in.
The people are friendly, the atmosphere is casual and comfortable and the food rocks — and it’s way better than football.
Thanks! I'm starting slowly, with the Couch to 5K program.
As for the pix … I'm scanning mine – 4 at a time. Tedious job, which is why it hasn't gotten done yet. I'm hoping to get some done when the Olympics come on – then I can scan and watch figure skating
I love your goals! Especially running a half marathon goal! I know you can do it! And yes, I totally remember film and have no idea what I need to do with all of those hard copy pictures I have?! Do I really have to scan them all onto a disk? It seems so time consuming… And I can't wait to see your wordpress theme you're wanting to create!!!!
Keep us posted on your progress with everything! Love you guys much!!!
