I’ve decided to check out a WordPress developers conference in Boulder tomorrow called WordCamp Boulder 2010. Boulder is a beautiful city at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains and will only be a 40 minute drive from my location in SE Denver.
After looking at the schedule, I couldn’t resist purchasing the $25 ticket online and clearing out my schedule for tomorrow. There are lots of great sessions to choose from, one that sounds really interesting is the DIY Usability Testing: No More Excuses! by Steve Martin. In the morning I am planning to go to the Blog Community, SEO Techniques and WordPress Development courses.
I am happy to see Name.com (based out of Denver) is a sponsor of WordCamp Boulder this year. I actually found out about the conference through Name’s marketing efforts. Social hour is 3pm at Boulder Theater, I’ll be there doing some networking. This could be good timing because I am just launching a Denver Business Network on a WP platform. Sounds like it’s going to be a great learning experience, I’ll do a writeup on the show Sunday or Monday. There are seven more WordCamp conferences worldwide before fall in case it sounds like something you would like to attend.
Sounds interesting! I’m sure you will learn alot! Nice job on the Denver Business Network site!
Talk to you soon.
Love You,
Mom
Thanks Mom 🙂 turns out it was a great learning experience. Also, I forgot how eccentric Boulder is on a Saturday afternoon at Pearl Street. lol
Hi Mike,
Sorry we missed you at WordCamp! Thanks for the shout out too, hope you had a good time. 🙂

Lesley, I did enjoy myself and was looking for the Name.com crew during the social hour. Anyway, I’m glad to see a Colorado domain company representing our community there. Fellow attendees I netwoked with were surprised to hear I sell and monetize domains as a form of income… but together I think we got the word out about about domain names at WCBoulder. Sorry I missed you too. I’m outta town for a week but whe I get back Lesley I will be calling you to finally meet for that beer when I return! 😀
