Freelancing in the New Economy is a lot like freelancing in the old one. Except this time if you’re wack, you starve. Great slides and presentation by Cory Collier.

Ignite Orlando
IgniteOrlando is an event that couples rapid-fire talks with a ‘maker’project. This event started in Seattle, but takes place around the globe. The talks last 5 minutes and consist of 20 slides that are automatically rotated every 15 seconds. As you can imagine this places some interesting limits on that kind of presentation you can put together. As you probably know, limits have an uncanny knack of making you more creative.
Tomorrow night is Orlando’s first Ignite event, and once you take a gander at the line-up (yours truly included), and I think you’ll agree that we are in for one hell of a show. If you haven’t RSVP’d for the event, do so now. If you have, then I’ll see you tomorrow night at 6pm!
Location:
Slingapours, Wall Street Plaza (downtown)
27 Wall Street Plaza
Orlando, FL 32801

This talk will show you how.

OrlandoPHP: WordPress Plugin Development
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.
