Community Building: From Twitter to #IRL

The WordPress community is wonderfully contagious but the honeymoon is over. We’ve hit the point where now more than ever, real-life interaction is needed. We can’t hide behind our keyboards anymore.

My session will provide examples and how-tos on building community in real life. We will go into social media platforms and how it’s a start, but then we’ll dive deeper into IRL engagement; What does this look like? How can one start?

This talk will also go into the importance of community, and how intentionally building community will directly affect the social trajectory of our neighborhoods all the way up to our nation and even the world.
