WordCampUK 2008

The Chronicles have been quite of late, but I wanted to give a quick heads up: The UK WordPress community is gathering. WordCamp UK will be held from Saturday July 19 to Sunday July 20, 2008 in Birmingham (Birmingham, UK that is). Tickets are on sale. 

There will be presentations, workshops and the opportunity to socialize with other WordPress enthusiasts and developers. A great opportunity to learn and share knowledge and skills. I’ll be there, and also supporting with sponsorship and speaking…

If you are a WordPress user in the UK (or know one, or can travel to the UK), come along and/or spread the word…

The blog goes on…

Still lots of posts going up at WOWNDADI. I may start blogging here again too… We’ll see.

In the mean-time, the top 10 posts, plus a bonus, for march were:

1. Mini-bar Meet Up – Some New Technologies.
2. The Now Habit – Dealing with Procrastination.
3. Why Don’t You See What You Can Do in an hour.
4. Power up your business with a Wiki.

Here’s to a productive and effective April!

The Month that was January – Top 10 posts

For those following this feed, here are January’s Top 10 Posts on the new WOWNDADI:
Hanging around with talented people is inspiring. For me, one of the great things about blogging is the brilliant people I get to meet. The conversation has been quieter this month, as many of the discussions have been face to face, rather than in the comments. Do add your comments to posts, I value them very much – even a single sentence can spark an inspiring discussion.

The ten most read posts in January were:

1. Why Don’t You See What You Can Do in an hour (with 3,815 views this month).
2. Watch out for the frogs!
3. The Now Habit – Dealing with Procrastination.
4. A Sense of History.
5. 10 Tips To Gain You a Better 08
6. Getting Started with GTD
7. Never Lose Another Thought Again!
8. ThinkingRock is 2 good!
9. Too Much Choice – Too Little Happiness
10. How to Deal with Being Overwhelmed at Work.

The close runner up was 5 Ways to Reduce the Stress of Choice. Thank you to all who have commented or linked to posts – I plan to make one by one mentions during the rest of the month!
