WordCamp San Francisco 2008
It’s hard to believe, but it’s already time for our annual WordCamp San Francisco conference.
This year’s speaker lineup is, how to put it? Kickass. Not to mention swiftly growing. Automatticians and other awesome WordPress users will tell you all about:
- The future of WordPress
- How to be a better blogger
- Increasing traffic
- Fun with APIs
And tons more.
Be the first to catch a brand-new rap about WordPress by Chuck Lewis, aka The SEO Rapper. Got questions? Bring them to our version of the Genius Bar. The geniuses are itching to be stumped. Try it. I dare you.
This year’s conference is a one-day event, August 16 at the Mission Bay Conference Center. Signups will be closing soon, so head over to the WordCamp site to register.
There’s also a special event the day after WordCamp: the WordPress Charity Scavenger Hunt.
The team that racks up the most points completing missions and finding weird stuff around SF wins sweet WordPress schwag. All proceeds will go to 826 Valencia, a local non-profit dedicated to helping students advance their writing skills. Register via Eventbrite to participate.

Talk about advancing your writing skills! Why must you use such a crude, offensive word? I’m talking about “kick*ss”. Is that how you normally talk? This is the second time in two days I have signed into WordPress to find offensive language right there in the featured blogs list that everyone can see. Yesterday it was somebody posting something using the sh-word. I couldn’t help but see that right as I signed in. And now your blog with the a-word. You know, there are ladies reading these sites. Please watch your language.

Hi,
First of all, I appreciate the hard work the wordpress.com team does, and think it’s a great idea to blog about it and make it public. But I’d like to ask that the annoying yellow notification that shows up in the blog stats page for each wordpress announcement be removed. Or at least, that it shows up only once for each announcement.
I clicked on the link just to get rid of it.
Thanks and regards.
