Rastin of rmdStudio and I met yesterday in Kitsilano at Calhoun’s Bakery (below) where we first partnered in 2007 to officially incorporate TAZZU as TAZZU™ Networking Ltd.

This meeting today however was to mark the passing of time, and acknowledge the winds of change.

We did some reflecting and agreed that TAZZU had definitely been a blast!

Since that first meeting in ’07 TAZZU has had its share of successes - initially a vibrant growing community, networking meetings in Yaletown, Gastown and Richmond, a number of WordPress Camps, Joomla Camps, including organizing and hosting the very first Joomla Day in Canada: "JoomlaDay Vancouver 2008".

The TAZZU community grew from an initial small handful of local acquaintances in 2006 to a vibrant group with members hailing from around the globe.

Some say that all good things must come to an end. I'm not so sure this is true, but what I do know is that time keeps ticking, and along with the passing of time comes change.

This past Wednesday, myself, along with rmd Studio, PeerGlobe and TAZZU, and hosted Vancouver’s first WordPress Camp.

Thanks to Amanda Abrams for this great photo!

We initially estimated around 35 to 40 people attending the event, located at the beautiful Network Hub. However, word got out, and a week before the event, RSVPs starting flooding in... yeah, I commenced to panic.

Phone calls were quickly made to locate a larger venue, but with such short notice none could be found, so we all just 'pressed' in.

The first to arrive got chairs, others took to the floor, and the rest stood. Okay, it's not ideal, but I tell you what, there sure was a sense of community within the room. We made the best of it.

I had the pleasure of greeting all the attendees, and must say they are an amazing bunch. I feel like I've just made a whole whack of new friends.

To summarize the event: the presenters were fabulous, making the most of their 20 minutes. As far as topics go, there was really something there for everyone. In addition, sponsors provided Timmy's coffee and donuts for all, and a free beer (thanks Automattic!) for those who made it out to the after-party held at the Flux Bistro.

So, from me personally,to all of you, thank you so much for making TAZZU's WordPress Camp a huge success!
