Overheard on Twitter

: I'm attending WordCamp Montréal 2009 -- http://bit.ly/FN89n :-)

@Miraz Matt will likley do a similar update in Wellington That State of the Word was at the SF wordcamp a few weeks back

Officially on vacation for two weeks. One with the kids, one only with my wife. Oh, and there's a WordCamp in between the two.

Ahh tout le monde parle du WordCamp Montréal et c'est la seule semaine de l'année où je ne suis pas à Montréal et que je ne peux changer! :(

@brettmorrison that seems to be the consensus. Calling it a wordcamp when it's not a wordcamp.

@wptavern I think the virtual conf looks like a fine virtual conf/training, but I don't like calling it a WordCamp. Needs to be trademarked

RT @PhilippeMartin vient de remplir le formulaire pour être conférencier au premier WordCamp Montréal http://bit.ly/pKe99

Viens de remplir le formulaire pour être conférencier au premier WordCamp Montréal http://bit.ly/pKe99

Est officiellement en vacances, a fini sa todo liste bureau (mais officieusement doit terminer 2 autres trucs pour WifiDog et WordCamp)

if 'WordCamp' were to become a registered trademark, who do you think should own it? Matt? Automattic? Someone else?
