Photoblogging Presentation at WordCamp Mid-Atlantic 2009

A little over a month ago Aaron Brazell and I were talking about the presentations being planned for WordCamp Mid-Atlantic 2009. It hit us that photoblogging had become a popular blogging technique that could make for an interesting session. I quickly stepped up to volunteer to take this one on.
In preparation I conducted a survey of Wordpress photobloggers and asked questions like why they photoblog, what themes and plugins did they utilize, and what improvements they would like to see. I’d like to thank everyone that participated in the survey and plan to have the results published this week.
The survey results were a great asset to building my presentation. I was able to display a number of themes and plugins along with examples of what I believe the top 5 reasons to photoblog are. If you are interested in seeing the slides from the session you can find them here.
I do plan on breaking the presentation down into a number of blog posts over the next few weeks. This subject will then continue on as a regular feature here with Wordpress theme and plugin recommendations, how-to’s, and answering any questions you may have.
Finally let me thank the organizers of WordCamp Mid-Atlantic, Aaron Brazell and Jimmy Gardner. They did a great job and the day was a complete success in both my eyes and every participant I spoke to. For a recap of the day check out Jimmy’s post about it.
