Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I know i said it at least a million times over the weekend, but I am so grateful for every single person that was a part of WordCamp St. Louis in any way.  I had a wonderful time and I hope all of you did as well.  We’re still working on a wrapping up a few things and hope to have links to all of the speakers presentations posted in the next few days.  Additionally, we’ll get the presentation up on WordCamp.tv as quick as we can so you can watch any of the presentations you weren’t able to attend.

If you’re in the St. Louis area, we hope to see you at one of our upcoming Meetups and don’t forget to follow the St. Louis WordPress community on Twitter or visit us at stlwp.org.

Once again, thank you all so much.  We’ll see you next year.

On Twitter? Use #WCSTL for WordCamp St. Louis (and bonus!)

As the title says, if you’re on Twitter, please use the #WCSTL hashtag for WordCamp St. Louis. It can be used for people to follow on HootSuite, Twubs, or Tweetchat. It’s also great for some of us to use to retweet and live blog.

Please don’t get panicky if you see me retweeting people like crazy under my own handle. I will also be handling the WordCamp St. Louis Twitter handle during the event, so please follow us at @wordcampstl.

BONUS!!!

Anyone from the WordCamp St. Louis event who tweets using the hashtag #WCSTL during WordCamp St. Louis will automatically be entered to win some Yoast Premium plugins or ebooks. Joost de Valk at Yoast (who is one of our sponsors) has generously given us quite a few plugin licenses and ebooks to hand out. In fact, it’s 31 total… including bundled plugins!

However, if you tweet the following during the event, you can earn 2 extra entries to win.

There are 2 more ways to gain an entry! So, I’ll list them all:

  • Merely using the #WCSTL hashtag when tweeting during the event.
  • Retweet our tweets about thanking sponsors (any of them.)
  • Where’s Yoast? (like Where’s Waldo?) Look at the St. Louis WordCamp header banner on this website and find the Yoast wrench. Go show Nile Flores, which she will usually be in the Happiness Bar. (The wrench looks like the image to the right, but in blue.)

P.S. – You have to be an attendee of the event to qualify for the giveaway. Winners will be called out publicly on Twitter, and need to follow our handle so we can DM you to get your details so we can get Team Yoast to send you your prize.

Again, please remember to please follow us on Twitter at @wordcampstl, and also use the hashtag #wcstl. Thanks! We really hope you enjoy WordCamp St. Louis. We have over 300 attends this year- a record!
