WordCamp Las Vegas 2009

Today was the exciting day of none other than WordCamp Las Vegas.

I missed it yesterday due to working on some files that really needed working, but I have been looking forward to this convention for quite some time now, and I hope that next year I am either able to attend the San Francisco convention or attend the full one here in town.

From Twittering to book promotions, this convention was certainly interesting. I can't even begin to go in-depth with all of the great speakers which attended this year; frankly, I think that it was very, very well put-together. The people were very friendly, and the general atmosphere was great.

There was just this quiet buzz; people discussing themes, blogging, and the blogosphere in general. Making a blog into a community was discussed, as well as having your very own personal brand- both of which I am attempting to of course work on :)

WordPress is a platform which I greatly admire. Many of my client sites are built upon it, and I am planning to eventually convert my main site to a WordPress template. I'm certainly looking forward to utilizing the new information and insights I gained today to put BeLinkd further, and to move forward with things.

If you want some direct quotes and general commentary from the morning/afternoon, I did a great amount of Twittering today: http://twitter.com/maidenx
