			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I met Blair through <a title="Say hello to John P." href="http://onemansblog.com" target="_blank">John P.</a> at WordCamp Las Vegas. Upon my return home, I bought and installed the pro version of Blair&#8217;s plugin, <a title="Check out Pretty Link Pro" href="http://prettylinkpro.com/" target="_blank">Pretty Link</a> to check it out. I was totally impressed with the functionality that his plugin brought to the table and began looking through his code. Let me tell you, it is a meticulously organized and succinctly written bit of code. Blair not only writes code, but effectively markets a pro version of his plugin.</p>
<p>As if he wasn&#8217;t busy enough, over the last few months, Blair has been busy writing another plugin, <a title="WP Mingle" href="http://blairwilliams.com/mingle-wordpress-plugin/" target="_blank">Mingle</a>. Mingle is a simple way to turn your WordPress blog into a social network without the overhead of WordPress MU and BuddyPress. He launched a <a title="WP Mingle Demo Community" href="http://wpmingle.com" target="_blank">companion site</a> to showcase the plugin&#8217;s abilities when he released the plugin and the site has become nothing less than what I would consider to be a Blair Love Fest. The feedback he&#8217;s gotten on the plugin has been overwhelmingly positive.</p>
<p>I think we can all learn a lot from Blair&#8217;s breadth of knowledge.</p>
<p>It is my great pleasure to announce that we have confirmed that Blair will be presenting in Orange County. If you&#8217;ve ever wondered how to build and market a WordPress plugin, come check him out.</p>
