WordPress as CMS and Center of Your Social Media Life
Speaker: Paul Maiorana is Director of Platform Services at Automattic.
Many of us know that WordPress can be fixed and contorted into being used as a CMS system. Why not make a WordPress that’s not built only for blogs, but is built as an intuitive CMS system? Not everyone wants to make a blog. This Meetup is for those who want to make a website, and want to use the great simplicity of WordPress. We will also talk about how WordPress can help you utilize social media networks.

Areas covered will include designing the product, viral marketing and growing globally.
