He does a good job explaining the difference between WordPress.com and the Self-Hosted software available at WordPress.org, and then gets into the nitty gritty of getting the software up and running quickly.

OrlandoPHP is the monthly user group meet up for PHP programmers in the greater Central Florida area. February’s meeting is tonight and I have the privledge of sharing my WordPress plugin development knowledge with the group as the first of tonight’s presenters.
Its a 30 minute talk so I plan on covering the basics of plugin development, where to get help, how I organize my plugin’s assets and will round it out by showing you how to add ajax functionality to your plugin (with jQuery of course!)
The fun starts at 7pm (Thursday, February 5th) at Stardust in Winter Park. There are still some spots open, so you should probably head over to the site and RSVP.
If you can’t make it, I will post my slides here afterwards.
