Twitter Love at WordCamp

At the beginning of CLTwordcamp, the 120 person audience was asked “Who doesn’t know what Twitter is?” It had already come up in conversation a few times. 1 person raised her hand. I am sure there were a couple other shy folks, but to say the least, Twitter was represented well at the conference.

Here is the CLTwordcamp tag on Twitter. Ben Ullman also wrote a good post on his interaction with other Twitter users at the event.

“What took you so long?” We know, we know.

Honestly, we were hesitant to put out too much publicity about CLT WordCamp until we knew the interest was there. Well it looks like we are actually going to have to do this thing now, because the interest has been remarkable. Thanks for showing your support.

Touch base with us on Twitter here. Give us your feedback, stay up on the latest and greatest updates, and (hint) there may even be a discount offered for all the Twitter folks out there when registration opens up soon.

Registration will open very soon by the way. We need to wait until we lock in our location so we can be sure about covering all costs, but that moment is close.

Thanks again to everyone who has supported us so far. Looking forward to a kick ass WordCamp. By the way, according to the WordCamp Report, “this could be the first time there are two WordCamps in one state.”

WordCamp RDU is scheduled for October 4, 2008, in Raleigh/Durham, North Carolina, which is exciting. Perhaps some interstate rivalry can spur on both conferences.
