How amazing was that video, right?
I see things like that, and I wonder, what am I even doing with my life?
I'd love to make something half that beautiful.
Well, good morning, and welcome to WordCamp US.
You have made it. Thank you for being here with us.
And thank you for being on time.
Give yourselves a round of applause.
Like me, who might run a little bit behind,
even you were on time today. So way to go.
Way to be here and ready to learn some new stuff.
So officially, it's WordPress Day.
I'm going to stop wiggling around so much.
And we get to show off some of the most amazing things that people have done with WordPress.
We'll see some websites.
We'll see some things that aren't normally traditional websites.
There's a lot of really cool stuff that's happening.
Our code of conduct is published on the website.
So you can go to WordCamp.org slash hyphen of hyphen conduct, or
you can just go to the WordCamp website and scroll down to the bottom and hit code of conduct.
It's all spelled out there.
I'll summarize it. Be amazing and excellent to each other.
Pretty easy.
If you note a violation and you want to report something that you saw
you can find an organizer.
They're wearing orange lanyards, or volunteers have teal shirts.
Or you can post something anonymously online through the website.
There's a form there, so you can make sure that organizers know what's happening
and that the code of conduct is being followed.
Because if it's not being followed, it's not really useful, right?
We also invite you to share your experiences on social media.
Make sure you use the hashtag WCUS.
It's nice and succinct. It fits everywhere.
Anywhere you're posting things, use that
so all of us can see what cool experiences you are having.
And if you want to get around town,
TriMet passes are available for you for free
at the info desks and at the registration desk.
That gets you on most of, or all of the public transit through and around town.
Super convenient. Don't miss out on that.
Lunch is at 12:15 in Exhibit Hall A1.
All of you want to talk about that.
Our social event is on Friday.
We'll talk more about that as the week goes on.
But all you need to know right now is that it's Friday, and you need your badge to get in.
If you have plus ones and families and stuff,
you can still buy badges for them to come to the party.
But nobody can get into the party without a name badge.
So make sure you have that when you get there.
Organizers and volunteers are here to help.
I already mentioned that they are wearing orange lanyards and teal shirts.
I'm pleased to be able to be the person who introduces to you our first speaker during Showcase Day.
Alex Guffey is a user experience lead at the Walt Disney Company.
In her current role,
she works with the Disney experiences communications department,
internal and external website.
And I know all of you have one pressing question.
Yes, she does have a favorite Disney character.
And her favorite Disney character.
So give Alex a round of applause and please welcome her to the stage.
She's gonna be talking to us about some very cool stuff that they've done.
