A little luck shined on me a while back on February 16th, when I was contacted by the organizer of the "NYC Tech Startup Tour Meetup: For Curious Developers" via a Linkedin message. It seems she was just starting up the group and was trying to gather the founding membership for the fledgling idea and offered me an invitation. I read over her concept and joined up thinking it was a great idea. The prospect of meeting some new people in the context of learning how they run their businesses was intriguing, and I was very curious what they would present to a room full of visitors…

After missing a few Wordpress meetups I really wanted to attend, I made time this week to head out to the Wordpress Meetup NYC at it's new location hosted at NYU Poly, and I made sure I RSVP’ed to get a slot.

Looking behind the curtain of WordPress 3.0
I went to my first Wordpress NYC Meetup yesterday, and I was pretty excited about it. It was serendipity that my work load started to ease up when this meetup was scheduled, and I wanted to hear directly from others what they were up to with Wordpress. Since I’ve had my head down the last few months fine tuning this blog, I also wanted to know about issues I might run into down the line with the pending release of Wordpress 3.0 coming later this year.
