WordCampMontreal (@wordcampmtl) is scheduled in exactly one month. As most of you already knows, it’s a camp for WordPress, the most used blogging and CMS software, the one that your uncle uses to post his travels, or the one that a huge media company such as LeMonde.fr uses for their millions of users. WordPress, known for its versatility, extensibility, developer and design-friendly code, “plug & play” install, open source code, was and still is at the forefront of the social web and is a model for many publishing software. And as such, it’s one of the unmissable technology events in Montréal this year.

There are already 15 presentations planned, spanning from SEO, buddypress, plugin development, etc. Spots are still available. I hope to see more about plugin development and platform integration (using it with Facebook or a Rails app for instance).

Organizers are also actively looking for sponsors. WordCampMontréal gathers all the city’s digerati, influential bloggers and video-bloggers, php developers, top web designers, which makes it an excellent opportunity for any company looking to reach this kind of audience. Talk to the team or pick directly a micro-sponsor spot on EventBrite
