WordCamp Cape Town was buzzing with Twitter activity last year. We had volunteers live tweeting the event so that those unfortunate WordPress fans who could not attend could still follow the action from the comfort of their desks or mobile phones (Remember our hashtag: #WCCT). Prizes were awarded in our “Why I love WordPress” competition for the most popular Facebook, Twitter and blog posts.
The “Why I love WordPress” competition’s rules were simple: ‘We often hear people professing their love for WordPress. Talking about passion and love is easy, but at WordCamp Cape Town we encourage you to “publicly proclaim your love for WordPress” and tell the world how you feel and why you feel that way.’
Here we have compiled a selection of our favourite tweets from WordCamp Cape Town 2011. Why not let us know today why you still love WordPress and what you are most looking forward to at WordCamp Cape Town 2012? Just tweet #WCCT and shout out your love from the digital heavens!
@wordcampct I love WP because it empowers both end users and developers to express themselves and own their presence/content online. #wcct
