Avast! Happy Talk like a Pirate Day - cast yer eyes on this request
and forward to those land lubbers that may be interested - Yo ho ho...

Next week Saturday and Sunday, September 27 & 28, we hope to see you
at the Virginia Samford Theatre beginning at 8 a.m. for the 1st annual
WordCamp Birmingham. For those unfamiliar with WordCamp, it's a
gathering of WordPress users, developers, other bloggers or anyone one
else interested in learning about blogging, networking and having fun!

Here's a more formal definition of what a WordCamp is, courtesy of the
WordCamp Report:

"WordCamp is a 1 or 2 day conference for WordPress users and
developers. The focus is on how to be a better blogger, on the
development and future of WordPress, and other topics of interest."

We've put together a fantastic set of speakers, including WordPress
developer emeritus Dougal Campbell, SEO specialist Donna Fontenot and
AdWeek's David Griner. We still have one or two more speakers to
announce and hope several of the attendees will consider presenting in
the lightning talks track which will take place (weather permitting)
in front of the historic theater. We're also plannng other activities
for Sunday, including roundtable discussions and a scavenger hunt.

Registration is $25 and includes lunch by Urban Standard, a t-shirt
and a chance to meet and network with other bloggers and learn from
each other. We will not be accepting registrations at the door and
it's closing on Monday evening, so we urge you to please register as
soon as possible as only 150 total slots are available!

If you've got any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Andre
Natta at acn...@gmail.com or direct message us via Twitter
(wordcampbham).

Andre,

 

So I missed the word camp with work and illness/laziness. Any chance I could still get my shirt?
