This weekend our team attended WordCamp Montreal at Concordia’s John Molson School of Business. During this two-day conference, developers, designers, bloggers, and entrepreneurs come together for WordPress-related talks. We had a lot of fun meeting the WP community and learning new things to help us sharpen our web skills.
Thanks to everyone who came out to hear our Creative Director Elana speak on the latest in web design trends. In case you missed Elana’s talk, you can view the slides here.
A video of the presentation will also be added to wordpress.tv in the coming weeks. Also a special shoutout to BlueHost for keeping us well fed all weekend. You guys rock! Looking forward to being back next year! Sporting our custom “In Pizza We Crust” DESIGN IS YUMMY tees.

Last weekend our Founder and Creative Director, Elana Rudick, had the pleasure of speaking at WordCamp Montreal. WordCamp is a conference dedicated to learning and sharing all that is WordPress (an open source content management system). The early Sunday morning crowd was an enthusiastic mix of designers, marketers, developers, freelancers and bloggers. Thanks to all those who attended, participated, shared and made the talk so much fun. Hopefully we were able to share some insight into how to chose the best theme strategy for your next project. Overall, the conference was a blast- we learned a lot, shared a lot, made new friends from across Canada and the U.S., and ate way too much candy provided by Planet Hoster. collage of pictures from wordcamp Who knows? You may be able to catch the talk in person at an upcoming North American WordCamp in the coming months…stay tuned. For now, the slides are available below:
