One friend was on a scanner giving me updates while I also checked social media. All-in-all it was a pretty interesting experience. No one…
It’s been a little over a week since WordCamp Scranton, the dust as settled, and I have slept. First, I want to thank everyone who came out: attendees, speakers, sponsors, and volunteers.
