If you’re still not following me on Facebook or Twitter, you probably haven’t heard that I’m speaking at another WordPress DC meetup.

It will be on Tuesday, August 9th at 7 PM located at Fathom Creative‘s office in DC. More details on location, parking, etc. can be found on the meetup page (linked previously).

What I’ll Be Talking About

Similar to my last presentation at WordPress DC, I will be discussing CSS. Unlike last time, however, the CSS tips I’ll be going over aren’t necessarily WordPress-specific, and can apply to nearly any type of site. The official description:

You’ll learn some useful and practical CSS tips and tricks. These could include tips on speeding up development time, general optimizations, and other cool things. Also, these aren’t necessarily limited to WordPress, but could apply to nearly any HTML/CSS based site. Beginner to intermediate CSS knowledge would be nice but not absolutely required.

Slides

These are in the same format as my previous slides (but less crammed so it’s easier to see on the TV).

Theme Lab T-Shirts

This will be the premiere of the limited edition Theme Lab t-shirts! Okay, they’re not really limited editions, I can print more if needed. I’ll be bringing various shirts in S/M/L sizes. A picture of them is below.

I’ll figure out some way to give them away at the meetup.

Andy Stratton’s Presentation

Also speaking at the same WordPress DC meetup is Andy Stratton, who I got to know pretty well at WordCamp Raleigh earlier this year. I saw his presentation there called Diet Pills, SEO and Theme Frameworks, which he’ll also be presenting here. Trust me, it’s one you won’t want to miss.

Conclusion

Looking at the meetup page, it looks like spots are filling up pretty quickly. If you want in, you should RVSP ASAP.

It’s that time of the year again. As some of you might remember, I attended WordCamp Raleigh last year as well and had a great time (and even got video interviewed!).

This year looks like it’ll be a great follow-up with a great lineup of speakers. If you’re going to be there, let me know. I’d love to meet you and/or see you again. I should be arriving Friday and will stay until Sunday.

If you haven’t registered yet, and would like to, there are still tickets available as of publishing this post at $45 each. Below is a link to register.

P.S. If you don’t know what I look like, see the video interview linked to above. My appearance hasn’t changed that much since a year ago.

Just yesterday, Lisa Sabin-Wilson of WordPress for Dummies fame, announced a new venture called Allure Themes.

She was nice enough to grant me an interview here on Theme Lab to offer more insight on her decision to launch a commercial theme business, and more.

Read on to see the rest of the interview with Lisa. My questions will be in bold with the responses below.
