This Saturday is Charlotte WordCamp also known as CLTWordCamp. The event is being organized by Creative Strategist, Jason Keath.

As this being my first WordCamp I’m excited to join others who are passionate about WordPress. Also I’m looking forward to joining other colleges on a panel to discuss promoting and marketing your blog and the keynote session from Mark Jaquith.

Also I still want to apologize again to the Triangle, NC (Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill) community for WordCampRDU being suspended. Someone else will be planning WordCampRDU for 2009.

Again looking forward to Saturday for CLTWordCamp and as always follow the tweets (@waynesutton) for updates.
