I gave a talk at the Boston WordPress Meetup last night about WordPress and the Fediverse
Slideshare link (You Got Your WordPress in My Fediverse) or embed below:
You Got Your WordPress In My Fediverse / You Got Your Fediverse in My WordPress – Two Great Things That Go Great Together from John Eckman
Went well I think – did not have a ton of time to put it together, and you could spend hours explaining the Fediverse or WordPress, but I tried to make it useful to folks interested in exploring more on their own.
@jeckman thanks a lot for spreading the word ☺️

Because my mastodon account is really just for testing / validating how things get sent to Fediverse subscribers.
The “follow” button at the bottom of profiles elsewhere on johneckman.com is actually the account I use to follow people and interact with people
so I have
@john@goatless.organd@jeckman@johneckman.comwhich are the identities I publish, and the mastodon.social account is really just for testing/debugging@jeckman Sorry, hopefully my testing isn't bothering you. Just trying to get a feel for the interface and how interactions work with Friends. (P.S. "goaltess" is misspelled above.)
