    Wonderful accommodations, knowledgeable presenter, friendly attendees. The "soup to nuts" presentation agenda was a bit ambitious - ran out of time before getting to the topic of most interest to me (WordPress as CMS). In hindsight, we should have pushed for a more "punctual" presentation start. I can appreciate the intention to maximize the audience draw with the broad agenda, though... and the organizer's intent to see what kind of WordPress interest is in this (Boston) area. I am glad I attended. Looking forward to next meeting's tentative topic - "WordPress Plugins". Thanks, James (or is it Jim?) and thanks to Kevin (presenter)

  • Claude Pelanne
    The presentation on Wordpress by Kevin Leary was a very good introduction to the benefits of using the Wordpress platform. Interaction with the audience was a big plus. It gave some of the attendees who are very knowledgeable the chance to contribute and added information that was very useful. Kevin did a great job in keeping the interest level of the audience. It was well worth being there. Great crowd of people.

    was a great meet, the speaker was well informed and handled the lack of microphone like a champ....
  • Dave Matson
    Good presenter, seemed very knowledgeable. Would have liked it if there were less questions & discussion dragging the presentation off topic, since he didn't even get through all the slides & info before time ran out.
  • Diane E. Williams
    This was my first time. It was very useful. I look forward to other meetings.
