WordCamp Orlando 2014

Last weekend, I attended and spoke at WordCamp Orlando and brought along Hieu Tran.

The delivery of my presentation wasn’t stellar and ended up only lasting about 15-20 minutes…

But, with 15+ minutes of questions and some love on Twitter, I feel that the topic was definitely of interest to the WordPress users in the audience.

Here are a few tweets I received.

Improving perceived speed is reality. Via @ebinnion #wcorl all about it. Site speed tools never gave me the full story

For those interested, you can find the slides on SpeakerDeck and some code samples on Github.

Universal Studios

No trip to Orlando can be complete without a trip to one the theme parks that the city is famous for.

So, on Saturday afternoon, Hieu and I decided to visit Universal Studios.
