There's a surprising number of niche WordPress events at the moment
- PressConf in Arizona
- LoopConf in London
- Enqueue in Sydney
- SomeConf in Minnesotta
- Checkout Summit in Palermo
I feel like I'm probably missing some more?

Why waste $20 per month for verification when you can do it yourself?

Publishers take note
This is more important than you realize. Bluesky doesn’t downgrade links. Which means news sites will get more traffic from here than other sites.

Which gives them economic reasons to post here first.
Bluesky says it is now sending referral traffic through its "go" subdomain to make it easier for publishers to track the traffic coming from the social network (Sarah Perez/TechCrunch)

This is a brilliant use of AI:

Tyler realized that publishers were wasting time and money to collect local events. He build an AI-powered Events Calendar that automatically imports events into WordPress and even updates them if the event details change later.
