  • Why @SiteGround (a @WordCampOrlando sponsor) is great for developers besthostnews.com/why-siteground… #wcorl

  • Big thanks to @ConstantContact for supporting @WordCampOrlando. #wcorl

  • “When I had interns at my house (because i work out of my home), cops came because they think i was selling drugs.” @JamesTryon #wcorl

  • RT @sarcasmically: When you get ANGRY that you have to pee because the #WCORL biz panel speakers are dropping so much knowledge you don’t w…

  • I love @syedbalkhi expressions when the other #wcorl business panelists talk about pricing. Looks like he has gas (or strong opinons).

  • Completely agree: “Putting out your prices out publicly means you lost the potential to make more from clients.” @syedbalkhi #wcorl

  • “If you don’t have a strict revision process, it will kill your design/development business.” @kennethgranger #wcorl

  • Networking is important, but also giving back and getting involved in local meetups also shows potential employers your worth. #wcorl

  • Takeaway from #wcorl business panel: most hires are referrals and not off the street. So it’s important for developers to network.
