Really looking forward to meeting folks and taking part in sessions tomorrow at WordCamp Portland.
My company, IvyCat.com, is one of the sponsors and we’re giving away a few hosting accounts as door prizes.
Also, I’ll be leading a session at 3pm titled Design & Debug WordPress Themes Using Free Tools.
I’ll post notes for the session in the morning. Hope to see you there.
WordCamp Portland 2008 is open for registration and the Agenda is posted.
You’ll even see my name in the list of speakers. I’ll be leading a breakout session at 2pm called “Design & Debug Themes with Free Tools,” which will cover using free and open source tools like Firebug and the Firefox Web Developer Toolbar to build, edit, and troubleshoot WordPress Themes.

If you’re a user, developer, or are just interested in WordPress and would like to learn and network with other WordPress folks, come on down.
I hope to meet you at WordCamp Portland.
