Word Camp 2007…A Little Jealous
OK, I admit it…my name is Becki and I’m a geek. I’m not a closet geek either, but one who embraces my geekiness, maintains a geek-tionary and someone who gets “hot” when reviewing open source programs.
About two months ago, I told Sally, a good friend of mine and fellow introvert, about a Geek Fest called Word Camp 2007, which happened to be in her neck of the woods, San Francisco. Sally decided to purchase her ticket post haste, while I searched for the best airfare which happened to be $550.00 which was a little out of my budget at the time. So I left my green hat of envy at the door and encouraged Sallly to go without me (which wasn’t that hard
). To my surprise, Sallly turned geek…read more about it at her blog.
She sent a You Tube video clip of her local news which highlighted a bit from Word Camp. If you look closely you can see her at the end of the clip.
Get geek-a-fied!

Got something to say?
I feel honored to be considered among one of the geeks. But you my dear rank way higher in the geek knowledge than me. I aspire to be like you someday.
Hi Becki,
Thanks for letting Sally know about the event! It was great meeting her there. We sat next to each other both days, sharing tips, notes and stories. Sorry you missed it! Perhaps, next year you can make it out??? I definitely plan to go next year! I’m guessing Sally will want to go again also. There are a ton of postings on the WordCamp 2007’s site (wordcamp.org). You can search by topic (http://2007.wordcamp.org/schedule/) or by attendee (http://2007.wordcamp.org/attendees/) until your heart’s content.
Thanks again for facilitating the Sally intro. See you in cyberspace!
Signed, yet another girl geek, Deena
I want to go next year too!!!
