WordCamp NOLA | April 10th-11th, 2009
Welcome to WordCamp NOLA:
We think that WordCamps should represent our community... in our case,
the New Orleans community. We're proud of our city, its heritage, the
culture, and of course food! WordCamp NOLA has made every effort to
ensure you have a great time. But before you make plans to be here, please
take a few minutes to think ahead. Here's some useful information to
help you layout your WordCamp weekend accordingly.
Important Information:
Just in case you've by-passed our website, or were sent here via Twitter, some random link, or even Facebook... we're putting some direct links here just in case you'd like to learn more about WordCamp NOLA and what will be happening for WordCamp weekend here in New Orleans.
Our Sponsors - Some great folks that have helped promote, setup, organize, and pay for this awesome event. Please take a moment to check their products and services out.
WordCamp Weekend - We've tried to make it easy on all of you during your time with us at WordCamp in April. Here are just a few details about Taxi fares, our Friday night mixer, and of course the event itself.
Guests & Speakers - WordCamp NOLA is the most anticipated Technology and Web Media event of the year here in New Orleans and by the list of our Rockstar presenters we've got coming it's not hard to see that they agree. We'll be adding more names to the list as final arrangements are made, but we think these all stars are a pretty good start to our debut event here in the Big Easy.
Sponsorship Opporrtunities - Putting on a WordCamp ain't easy. Fact is, putting on a WordCamp of this caliber ain't cheap either. While we'd love the financial support, we're also interested in providing opprotunities to a niche, captive crowd. Interested? We'd love to hear from you.

A request to show some thanks:
The wonderful folks at Hotel Le Cirque have been a huge help getting our event planned smoothly and we've included tons of extras that "other" WordCamps don't dare even think about doing. That said, all that we ask is for you and your friends to book your rooms at this gorgeous hotel. Booking any room downtown on a weekend night can easily cost you hundreds of dollars... this is a great deal, we promise! Did we mention the WordCamp crew will be there too?
