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.

CLTWordCamp, blogging, participation & introductions

We’re almost halfway through CLTWordCamp , the morning started off with short 20 seconds introductions from the entire room, that went surprislly fast & well. Then we broke up into two sessions, 1. a WordPress for Beginners and the others had an open discussion (camp style) on wordpress.

We just finished our session on Technical & Design of WordPress and now it’s lunch time. Of course to follow the conversations do a search on #CLTWordcamp using search.twitter.com.

New Logo & Tshirt

Check the new logo design in the header as well as on the t-shirt below.

We also hooked up a new badge for those of you out there that have been helping us spread the word on your blogs.

And for anyone wondering about the crown, Charlotte known as ‘the Queen City’.
