WebDD Backnetwork Registration Open

We're really close to opening the WebDD event registration fully. In the meantime we've opened the WebDD Backnetwork which has very kindly been built, donated and maintained by Madgex.

The Backnetwork is a fantastic tool which aggregates WebDD blog posts, WebDD delegate mapping, WebDD Images (from flickr) and helps people build up WebDD social networks.

It's SUPER IMPORTANT THAT YOU TAG ITEMS 'WebDD'.

While you're waiting for us to open registration for the event, why not register for the WebDD Backnetwork?

Images work in a very interesting way, here's the blurb from the site: -

"If you wish your photos to display within this site, please upload them to flickr and tag them WebDD. If the image contains delegates you known please tag the image with their name ie 'glennjones'"

We're hoping to build up a massive network in matter of weeks and have a "living record" of the event.

Give it a whirl and let us know what you think.

Hi Phil!

I was curious to hear if you'd be interested in me coming over to WebDD and do a half hour (or one hour) session on using "umbraco" to create standard compliant .NET websites.

umbraco is a generic, open source .NET CMS written in c#. It comes with a slick webbased GUI that makes it very easy for users/editors to edit and create content. It uses w3c standards like XSLT to transform content and allow you to re-use your existing .NET logic through User Controls or Custom Controls.

I was told about WebDD by one of the active guys in our community and as umbraco is catching up pretty fast in the UK, I'd be very happy to do a session. We've also decided to move our yearly umbraco conference from Copenhagen, Denmark to London this year (late april/beginning of may).

Let me know if you also think it fits into the programme. My e-mail is nh AT umbraco DOT dk.

btw: In case you wondered - our current website is really bad at standards and a new one will see the light early next week and it'll be xhtml strict compliant. However there's quite a lot of UK Websites powered by umbraco that goes through SiteMorse :-)
