WordCamp UK 2009 – This year it’s Cardiff

I have now bought my ticket to WordCamp UK 2009. The second annual UK-based WordCamp. This time the venue is Cardiff and I am really looking forward to it.

Last year’s WordCampUK was the first and went really, really well. I got to speak at the event, I met some great people, and for me, it was a life changing event — literally! Having listened to and spoken to a number of people who earn all or part of their living with WordPress, I decided to give up my job and work for myself.

I can’t promise it will be quite so significant for you, but I do promise you will hear some great speakers, and meet some really nice people. Some who are experts, some who are beginners, plenty in between, all of whom are fans of WordPress.

WordCamp UK 2009 Logo We all work together to make it a great couple of days from which everyone can learn something, be inspired, and maybe, just maybe, it can change your life too.

I have volunteered to speak again, but don’t let that put you off.

This time I am bringing the family along a day early and I’m looking forward to seeing some of what Cardiff has to offer. I’m especially looking forward to the Dr Who and Torchwood exhibitions

Tickets are now on sale, with a discount before May 31st. We are looking for Sponsors too.

Come along, all are welcome. Please book early, as places are limited.

I just want to wish you the best, both for Wordcamp and your presentation.

I grew up in and around Cardiff and now live in New Zealand, so unfortunately won’t be able to make.

Please say hi to the motherland for me!

Cardiff is a great city! I’m guessing it’s gonna be in the bay? We’ve just sold the house there, and I won’t be travelling from where we live now But the bay is beautiful and the Dr. Who Up-close exhibition in the Red Dragon Centre is fantastic too, but I went a couple of years ago and I think they’ve re-arranged it since – it still should be good though. Everyone have a great time and report back about it!

I’ll see you at Wordcamp. I’m a real late arrival on the Wordpress scene, but we’ve used it here at the International Baccalaureate to power our new blogs network and we LOVE it.

Looking forward to your speech.
