# Dev Blog: Upcoming WordCamps - Host: [wordpress.org](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/hosts/wordpress.org/) - Saved: April 30, 2008 (2008-04-30T10:54:48Z) - Record: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/85d995d672f5/ - JSON: https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/85d995d672f5.json ## From the page (probably an excerpt, not Jamie's words) WordCamps are my favorite events to go to because theres something about the core WordPress community that attracts smart folks with good philosophies that are fun to hang out with. In this post Ive collated the upcoming WordCamps we know about, including the one in San Francisco. Hopefully there will be one nearby so you can meet other WordPressers in your area. WordCamp San Francisco will be August 16 at the Mission Bay Conference Center. WordCamp Paris will be on May 3rd. Heres their official site. WordCamp Italy in Milan will be May 10th. (And I believe Ill be there.) WordCamp Birmingham UK will be July 19-20. WordCamp Toronto will be October 4th. There are people in the planning stages in Australia, Philippines, Beijing, Utah, Hawaii, UK, NYC, and possibly others, so if you live in one of those areas and would like to help set up a WordCamp in your area Google around or connect with bloggers in your area. You can always find out more at WordCamp Central. ## Facts - Kind: [Page](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/kinds/page/) ## Same host - [WordPress Extend Ideas Improve Wordpress registration](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/4abf75cf77ed/) (wordpress.org, August 19, 2007) - [IPhone Mobile Admin](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/a9a92558b83e/) (wordpress.org, February 22, 2008) - [WordPress 2.5](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/95dd99bf6544/) (wordpress.org, March 29, 2008) - [Category Icons WordPress Plugins](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/70d0e76b48d5/) (wordpress.org, October 8, 2008) - [WordPress 2.8 Release Candidate 1](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/6b187be3df4b/) (wordpress.org, June 7, 2009) ## Saved the same week - [Traditional Media Companies Fight The 'Lumbering Giant' Tag](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/a7834b85ae10/) (gigaom.com, April 29, 2008) - [Mint Moves Into Investment Tracking](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/6df2c46bfeb3/) (techcrunch.com, April 30, 2008) - [Ubuntu Server Upgrade to 8.04 Hardy Heron](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/e2c873320771/) (hostingfu.com, April 30, 2008) - [Zenbe: Next-Generation Webmail, With A Platform Twist](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/e4cd3eb9bfb1/) (techcrunch.com, April 30, 2008) - [Twitter and more disconnection](https://links.thingelstad.xyz/links/fa552d003076/) (weblogs.asp.net, April 30, 2008) ## Elsewhere - Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://wordpress.org/news/2008/04/upcoming-wordcamps/
