WordCamp Victoria is very pleased to welcome Rebecca Bolwitt as a featured speaker at the upcoming WordCamp on May 15th, 2010.

In case you’ve been living in a cave for the past few years, here’s Rebecca’s profile:

Rebecca Bollwitt has been blogging about life in BC since 2004 on Miss604.com, and she has been podcasting since 2005.

Listed among Vancouver’s most visible on the web, Miss604.com was voted “Best Vancouver Blog” by the Georgia Straight for 2009, “Best Local Blog” by The Westender in 2010 and has been ranked within the top ten blogs in Canada. Rebecca co-founded sixty4media, a WordPress website development firm, and has co-authored the book, Blogging to Drive Business.

On a personal note, I recall looking up Olympic terms on Google while on the Skytrain in Vancouver, and finding Rebecca’s blog featuring in the top 3 or 4 results on almost every term I searched. But more importantly, I was more likely to find the information I needed on her blog than most of the other sites (including, in some cases, the “official” websites for the Olympics).

We’re very excited to have Rebecca speak. You won’t want to miss it!

Tickets for WordCamp are on sale now!
