WordCamp Chicago is all over Twitter

For last year’s WordCamp Chicago – our Campers blew up the official hashtag for the event.  Don’t believe me – check out Adria’s twitter update from earlier this month about it:

This year we expect it to be no different – - and here are some WordCamp Chicago Twitter resources for you to follow:

• You can follow WordCampChicago on Twitter for all the latest information – This account will be invaluable to attendees leading up to and during the event, as it is where we will broacast all announcements, pre and post parties and meetups and the latest information about the event.
• The official hashtag for the event is #wcchicago
• There is a WCChicago Twitter Hashtag widget you can install on your WordPress blog to display the latest BUZZ going on about WordCamp Chicago on Twitter – - download the WCChicago Twitter Hashtag plugin here (be sure to rename the file twitterhash.php) – - courtesy of our good friends over at WebDev Studios – thanks guys! (download then upload to your /wp-content/plugins/ folder and activate – then add the widget to your sidebar. Easy peasy! here is the CSS we use to style it – feel free to nab and tweak as needed.)
