Last week, I was on the road for a special GoDaddy mission called #OperationWapuuRescue. In case you missed it, I traveled 20 hours across 6 states to pick up life-sized Wapuu — who was last seen at WordCamp US 2019 in St. Louis, Missouri!

Be sure to come see Wapuu in-person at WordCamp US this year in Portland! He'll be walking around and hanging out near the GoDaddy booth at times!

New Features and Updates

🎟️ Previous event iterations (WIP): I've added a field to events that allows me to share previous iterations of a WordCamp and a few select stats. For instance, when you look at WordCamp US 2024, you'll see a table in the sidebar with WordCamps US 2015-2023 — with overall rating, expected attendance, and actual ticket sales numbers.
