Session Videos Are Live

Uncategorized

Did you miss a WordCamp session because there were too many great options at the same time? We understand — you had to make a decision. You had to choose one over another. So, you went to one, but really ALSO wanted to see another presentation that was happening at the same time. Well, now you can watch that session you missed! We’re excited to announce the session videos are live on WordPress.tv!

Now you can relive a session you really enjoyed and see if you gain something new — chances are you will! Or, watch one you missed the first time. And, if you couldn’t make it to WordCamp Asheville, be sure to check out the sessions. It’ll give you a taste of what you missed, and what you can expect from WordCamp 2015!

Thanks to the efforts of our videographers at Digital Fridge and organizer Julien Melissas, the sessions were recorded and are being uploaded to WordPress.tv. Please note that at the time of this post, not all the presentations have been uploaded, so please check back over the coming weeks for more.
