Just got back from a really refreshing day in Boston at WordCamp 2012. It is always nice to meet new friends and hear about new ideas concerning WordPress plugins, templates, development, marketing, SEO, and design. It was less than a month ago that we checked out WordCamp NYC. Now we have PodCamp Boston to look forward to this fall …which appears to be taking on a new look and feel: PodCamp East….which appears to be in Wilmington, DE.
Jam packed with fabulous people and information….going to conferences reminds me how much I love to learn. Add that to the MIT Microsoft NERD building and the view over the Charles River and it all adds up to a great weekend.
In fact, much of the PodCampBoston 2010 was about social media. Unlike PodCampBoston 2007 which focused on the production of podcasts, this year it was all about the application of podcasting, videocasting, blogging and all the social media and the applications of those media.
One very wonderful presentation [amongst so many] was given by Tamsen McMahon on Social Media. I liked this because it really pulls out the hype of social media and brings us back to the real reasons of ‘why’ to engage in social media.
