I gave a presentation on WordCamp UK last night at the June meeting of London Bloggers.

The presentation [pdf] seemed to go down postively at the well attended meeting at The Coach and Horses in Soho.

Afterwards Alexandra, Andy, Tim and myself made a detailed examination of the various beverages available from behind the bar from the vantage point of the Lego-like seating outside the pub.

The venue for WordCamp UK has been changed – it’s now going to be at The Studio in Birmingham.

This is very close to the previously planned venue and so should not prove to be a problem for those travelling from outside Birmingham.

Details of how to book tickets for the event, to be held 19-20 July 2008, will be released shortly.

For full details go to the WordCamp UK wiki.
