Good news everyone! We’ve decided to extend the deadline on our Call for Speakers a few more days! We figured we’d give everone the weekend to gather your ideas for a talk at WordCamp Milwaukee.

The new deadline for speaking will be:
Tuesday, April 30

Submit a Talk Now

We are looking for all kinds of speakers for this event, so please add your submissions. Talks don’t have to be 100% WordPress, just as long as it’s something a WordPress user can use. If you’re worried about your experience level, stop worrying. WordCamp has all types of users and want to hear from the experiences of novice to advanced!

So far we have topics in the following categories, but we have an “other” section on the form, so we’re open to suggestions:

• Design
• Development
• Using WordPress
• Blogging & Content Creation
• Business Development
• Internet Marketing & SEO

Why should you talk at WordCamp Milwaukee?

• Speaking at events like WordCamp Milwaukee is a great opportunity to give back to the WordPress community. WordPress has been built as a community driven project and people do their parts in many ways. Teaching and speaking is a great way for you to help out!
• You can meet new people in the industry and increase your visibility among your peers!
• You get to attend a pretty awesome Speaker/Sponsor party on Friday night, plus we may have a special surprise for our speakers

Join us for our monthly WordPress Meetup and get ready for WordCamp!

Thursday, April 18, 2013 @7:00 PM

Bucketworks: 706 South 5th Street, Milwaukee, WI

Michelle Schulp (@marktimemedia) of Marktime Media will join us for April’s meetup. Michelle is a web and print designer and WordPress aficionado. She is fascinated with the problem solving aspect of design and how to improve not only the look of your website, but also it’s performance.

Design is not just about themes, graphics, or the look-and-feel of a website. We will discuss “design thinking” as a problem solving strategy, including why the most beautiful sites are not always the most successful. We will end with some ways for you to start applying “design thinking” principles to your own projects.
