Why you shouldn’t miss the Entebbe WordCamp?
Don’t be surprised if you see a big-name speaker at a low-key local gathering like WordCamp. Even though the purpose of WordCamps was to be low-key, major cities have large enough WordPress communities to have an event attendance of 700+ people.
You should be prepared to learn a new dimension of WordPress because there are a lot of unique ways people are using WordPress. You should be prepared to have fun with other people who are just as obsessed with WordPress as you are (or just as NEW to WordPress as you are). There is usually a casual afterparty for you to meet new friends, business partners, employees, employers, and life partner
