It’s always good when students get placements and it seems Beef just can’t get enough as they have taken on 2 placement students the past couple of years. So it was great news when they sponsored WDC2009.

So students, if you’re thinking of doing a placement be sure to find out more at WDC2009.

Pricecuts.co.uk sponsors WDC2009

It’s great when a sponsor comes back to help an event, what’s even better is when we can help them promote their latest product.

Those of you who game along to WDC2008 will remember Existem, well this year they are supporting us for WDC2009 and promoting their new site PriceCuts.co.uk. A great site for finding those discount vouchers and codes for meals our of savings on those all important books and gear us web geeks ~~want~~ need!

Be sure to check it out and then Peter Coles will be around to talk to about anything Web and sitting on one of our panels.

If you head over to our Panels page, you’ll see the final members are falling in to place for WDC2009. If you’re a regular to WDC events you’ll see a new panel for 2009. Which is aimed at finding that dream web design/development job after University or even as a placement.

Just in case you’re wondering about tickets for this years event (WDC2009/WDC09/whatever you want to call it) then wonder no more!

Tickets will go on sale this week at some point so keep an eye out over here and on Twitter (@webdevconf) for when they go live. Unlike other events all the tickets will go on sale at once, no early birds and no limited releases over the coming months until the event once they’ve sold out that’s it. There will be some “competitions” for a free ticket or two.

More details will come when they go on sale this week!

.Com

As I keep working on WDC2009 and the new site theme/style I also got the chance to get webdevconf.com to add to the .co.uk.

As they are nicely on my (mt) space the move was nice and quick and hitting .co.uk should automatically redirect you to .com and report the correct HTTP header.

Be sure to remember (as you can see) the new style is under way and new content will be sorted out as I get it, first the general layout!

Emails are still .co.uk so don’t worry if I’m already in your address book. They will be set up to automatically forward to the .com version once I’ve finished setting it all up.

WDC2009 Coming soon…

Alex — Mon, 09 Feb 2009 10:10:32 +0000

As some visitors may notice the style of the site may blip to a dark theme with not much on.

This is because work in well underway for the third Web Developers Conference, WDC2009. It is still 8 months away but it’s nice to be kept in the loop with things as they occur. Some of you may already know who’s speaking but this won’t go live until the rest of the site does.

The site is also a nice little testing ground for “new” stuff so as I dive deeper in to the world of Wordpress I uncover more and get the chance to show it off.

Don’t worry! If you’ve not seen the blip in look you’re not missing much, yet! Be sure to follow myself and/or @webdevconf on twitter to make sure you don’t miss anything.

For the chance to have an informal catch up before WDC2008 Dan Dixon got together with the guys behind Skillswap Bristol, myself, Patrick H Lauke and James Box to put on a Skillswap evening on the 11th, 1 day before WDC2008. Not only will you get a quick (12 minute) peak in to what those guys do but you’ll be in the mood for the following day where you can learn the rest.
