Lightning Talks

Rob Hope
Why all you need is One Page for your next project with WordPress
In this talk, I will look at how it’s often better to tell your story in One Page opposed to a multiple-page website. Focus on simplicity, declutter the interface and get results. We need to understand in this day and age attention spans are depleting online. We need to get straight to the point. I’ll throw in some stats about One Page trends, popular WordPress themes and plugins. I’m also going to throw in a coupon for a free (usually $20) private website video review by me, exclusive to WordCamp attendees.

The ball is in your court: how you can contribute to open source projects.
More often than not the average WordPress user doesn’t understand the core principles behind the idea of open source software like WordPress. This often leads to misdirected frustration by users at what is seen as a lack of product support. The talk will look at the realities of an open source project and how you can get involved and help make a difference.
