May 8, 2017 — Wow! Just wow!

When I first started to consider asking Cate DeRosia if she would be interested in being interviewed, I thought she might have something interesting to say to the WordPress world. This interview far exceeded any expectations I had.

This interview was done at WordCamp Jackson, where we were able to find a quite place in between sessions.

Cate talks about being the spouse of a remote WordPress developer. She discusses attending WordCamps and getting to know people in the Community she had only heard about and building her own relationships.

We discuss raising children in the digital age, the steps taken to protect them and letting children find their own way. Cate talks about taking their children to WordCamps and how they forged their own relationships in the WordPress Community.

May 7, 2017 — On December 3rd, 2015 a service called Let’s Encrypt entered its public beta. Backed by several major sponsors, the service caught on quickly. As of summer 2016, more than 5 million SSL certificates had been issued by Let’s Encrypt, nearly four million of which were active and unexpired.

If you are not familiar, Let’s Encrypt is a free, automated, open certificate authority that allows users to encrypt the data flowing to and from their websites easily and for free. The goal of Let’s Encrypt is to make data transfer over the internet secure by default. Towards that end, they have invested a considerable amount of time and energy in making it easy for users of all stripes to secure the data flowing in and out of their websites.

You may have already considered encrypting your website before — perhaps to perform better in search engines, or to gain the ability to accept payments on your website. Regardless of whether you’ve considered enabling SSL on your website or not, the goal of this talk is to demonstrate why encryption on your website matters. We will look at some practical examples and live demos of what data can be stolen from your website, even if you are using an encrypted wifi connection. Likewise, we’ll talk about how encryption of all websites — whether they’re dealing with sensitive information or not — makes the web a safer place for all of us.

Last, of course, we will look at how you can get started with Let’s Encrypt on your website. We’ll review the options available to you on common hosting providers, as well as walk through the steps for how you can set this up for yourself, if you have administrative access to your server.

If you already have Let’s Encrypt enabled on your site, this talk may be basic for you (although we’ll do a few cool demos that make for great party tricks, so feel free to stop by).

If you’ve never accessed your hosting provider’s website admin area (CPanel, Plesk, etc), this talk might be a bit hard for you to follow (although you should totally come and ask questions both during the presentation and after).

If you have a website and you’ve thought about enabling SSL on it but you just haven’t gotten around to it yet, this talk will be perfect for you. By the end of this presentation, you should not only know how to enable encryption on your website, but you will understand why it’s so important that you do.

It sounds like an intimidating topic, but we can do this. Come on and let’s encrypt!

May 6, 2017 — I am a digital nomad from France. I have been traveling WordCamps since one year creating small video interviews with speakers, volunteers and attendees. I had the chance to run into a few representants of the WordPress Asian community. Inspired by WordCamp US and WordCamp Europe, they all shared their hopes of a “WordCamp Asia.”

Until this happens, I want to carry on this conversation with you, WordPress fellows of India! I want to hear from you what is your experience with WordPress in this country? What are your challenges? What are your opportunities? How is WordPress growing? How do you contribute to it?

During the first part of the talk, we will record a series of video interviews together where I will ask you to answer these questions for me. I will show you how easy it is, with just a few pieces of equipment and a smartphone to shoot simple footage that you can then edit to post on your WordPress Blog or social media.

On the second part of the talk, we will use this footage to edit a little documentary about “WordPress in India.” We will use the plugin VINUBIS Video Editor to do this. I will do a little demo for you so that you will be able to see how easy it is to edit video with this plugin, right onto your WordPress blog!
