What I took away from WordCamp Toronto 2008
Mathieu | Wednesday, October 8th, 2008 | No Comments »I was looking forward to quite a few of the sessions at WordCamp Toronto 2008 on a personal level because I have been looking to develop my WordPress skills this past year. I like doing “Internet” things, learning about social media, how they can be used in business, stuff like that.
The sessions that touched on themes and plugins were easily the ones that helped me the most. Just from the stuff I learned this weekend I was able to download the latest WP, install a kick-ass theme, find plenty of amazing plugins and get the site going in just three days. I actually had it up on Monday but the really great plugins that help with stats and contact forms took me another day or so.
Even customizing the theme was a breeze and I had that done Monday evening. I worked on The Courier’s Web site, the student newspaper at Centennial College as a pet project to put what I learned into practice and I’m pretty happy with the results. What do you think?
