December 20, 2017 — I had a great time interviewing Josh. We have run across each other a few times since we first met at WCUS 2015.

We talk about WCUS 2017 and his presentation which can be found at WordPress TV – https://wordpress.tv/2017/12/10/josh-pollock-five-attitudes-stopping-you-from-building-accessible-wordpress-websites/

Josh has been spending time working with the Gutenberg Editor and creating plugins.

We discuss the pros and cons of big WordCamps versus smaller WordCamps.

He is a big proponent of the WordPress Community and always has time to help people.

One thing that I neglected to tell Josh. This is the 70th interview that I have done since June of last year.

Thanks Josh!

December 10, 2017 — “What do I need to learn to become a WordPress developer?” This question pops up in forums, social media, and everywhere else on a daily basis. I think a better question is “How do I prepare for a future that looks nothing like the status quo?”

Tech is changing at incredible speed, and what we consider important skills today may be meaningless a year from now. This talk is a discussion of what technologies are on the horizon, how the web and the internet will change, and how we can all prepare for a future with or without WordPress.
