You know, this guy:
I suspect that a lot of you might be feeling a bit like that too, with all the WordCamp Portland 2010 info flying at you in the past week. Speakers, schedules, tickets, times, dates, whaaa? I thought I’d just break it [...]

Social Media + WordCamp = Crazy Delicious
If you are planning to be at WordCamp, and you want to talk about the (undoubtedly) awesome time you are having, and you want to show off to everyone who is NOT there that you ARE there, here’s how you do it:
You need one word. That word is: wordcampdx. Make note that it only has the ONE p in it. Think of it like the secret word, remember it and use it EVERYwhere. As a #hashtag, on Twitter if you are rocking the 140, on Flickr if you are taking photos of all the blogger type folks who are there, on Technorati if you are liveblogging things, and if you have anyplace else you are slapping a label on your content, please make sure that label is “wordcampdx” so we can find all the photos and blog posts and tweets and everything else our campers create.
And while we’re on the subject, here’s the official stance on media capturing: BRING IT. No really. Bring your camera and your other camera. Video camera, webcam, digital audio recorder, microphone for your iPod, mic for your laptop, we welcome them all. As of now we only have confirmed audio recordings for the big sessions, so if you have a video camera and you’re willing to record or loan it out for the day, let us know in the comments.
TIP: When you get your laptop and your charger or your iPhone or your EEEpc or whatever else you’re packing up to bring to WordCamp, make SURE you have a camera. And when you get there and we’re ready for Lorelle’s keynote address to start, make sure you have that camera handy. Why? Wait and see.
