Have a WordCamp Presentation Idea? Submission Deadline is June 15th

Posted By Aaron on June 1st, 2010

We’ve had some great presentations submitted thus far for WordCamp Portland, but I’m sure a few of you have an idea in your head about a potential topic. The deadline for submitting topics is June 15th.

How to Submit a Presentation Idea

We’ll again have two full days of conference, meaning we’ll be selecting quite a few speakers beyond the four that have already been announced. We might do something different this year… longer presentations should be 45 minutes, but we also might feature shorter 15 minute talks. Topics should revolve around WordPress and blogging (pretty much anything related is fair game). Themes, plugins, authoring, content, legal issues, RSS, voice, writing, database/server admin, you name it….

If you’d like to present at WordCamp Portland, please contact speaker coordinator Aaron Hockley via email (aaron@hockleyphoto.com). Let us know your topic, whether you think it would work best as a longer 45 minute presentation or a quicker 15 minute talk. A short bio/background/links to help us learn about you are also appreciated. We’ll solicit a bunch of ideas and then the organizers will make selections in late June to fill out a well-rounded docket of presentations.

Get your idea submitted soon, we are only accepting submission through June 15th!
