Important Second Day Notes!

Download the Revised Schedule

We’re starting at 9 AM today, for safety reasons. This does mean the schedule is being pushed back.

  • Because of the weather, we are accepting late registrations, as well as walkups. You must have exact change to register onsite.
  • T-shirt and bag pickup is today for people who purchased earlybird or regular tickets, as well as speakers.
  • It is required that each attendee WEAR THEIR BADGE on the SCAD campus for security reasons, as well as for lunch. If you do not have your badge, you cannot get lunch.
  • Lunch is being provided by SCAD in the Hub. It is directly across from the two rooms on the second floor.
  • If there is any trouble, the trouble desk is at the registration table. Please use it, and someone will contact either Brandon or Tessa.
  • If you are a sponsor w/literature, please notify someone at the registration table. It’s very important, and we want you to get everything out of your sponsorship.

Yes, there is an afterparty. It’s being held at TAP, at 1180 Peachtree ST NW, 30309. We’re heading over there very quickly (it’s cold!) after sessions end today.

WordCamp Atlanta is STILL ON

By brandon sheats | Published: January 8, 2010

We want you to know that WordCamp Atlanta is still on!

After checking the Weather Channel, there is no more snow coming in, and the roads are recovering better than expected.

But please, PLEASE, (really) be careful out there. We’d much rather you be safe about this from wherever you are.

Don’t speed thinking you’re going to be late, don’t especially fret if you’re late. We’re going through this too, our sticker order isn’t coming
in in time, we’re working with SCAD to make sure everything is still set.

Calling All Geniuses!

By brandon sheats | Published: December 31, 2009

We’re just over a week away from WordCamp Atlanta (also known as the #bestwordcampever), and it’s time to bring in the WordPress experts/gurus/specialists/people that just know it together for our Genius Bar. It’s another way of giving back to the community.

What’s the Genius Bar? Taking a note from San Francisco, the Genius Bar is a place here WordPress users can get help on getting started, installing the right plugins, themes, upgrading WordPress, almost any trouble you have! If you come out of a session scratching your head about something, or simply need to bounce an idea off of someone that’s more experienced, this is the place to be.

If you’re experienced with WordPress, you should follow the read more link and fill out the form. As always, you can email me directly. You should also follow us on Twitter and stay in touch via Facebook.
