WordCamp Los Angeles is a playground to those who WordPress. We use and believe in open source code because we want to be open, transparent, authentic and share. WordPressers, particularly those at #WCLAX want to get to know you and find out who you really are.<\/p>\n
#WCLAX is the perfect place to do so as you\u2019ll be among friends, fellow WordCampers and Snapchatters. If you don\u2019t know anyone yet, you will VERY soon.<\/p>\n
Zeek Interactive has sponsored a Snapchat Geofilter, making every snap even more personal! And Snapchat has another feature you may love, especially for the after party. Every Snap disappears after 24 hours, unless you choose to save it to your memories or download! While this may seem like a waste to some, it really is an interesting perspective. Your Snaps capture life in the moment. Time stands still – and you snap it! Share still photos, audio notes or short videos. Use the chat feature for interactive phone calls, even!<\/p>\n
To make the most of your time on Snapchat, you first need to create a profile. Take 4 photos of yourself to make the required gif. This will become your Snapcode (a picture of you on a ghost like pegboard) and it\u2019s what you share on social media to connect with friends. You can also add people by username. If you see someone\u2019s Snapcode and want to connect, take a picture of it and then click on add friends which will prompt you to add their Snapcode or photo.<\/p>\n
Once you have a friend or two, you can get started! You can send individual photos (snaps) or add all of them to your Snapchat story, a 24 hour view of life as you know it. Add verbiage, art or emojis to your photos by pulling an icon from the top onto your photo. Into stickers or Bitmojis, you\u2019ll find them here. Check out more fun features by tapping your face. Swipe to the side to discover more fun features. Want to use the WCLAX filter? Keep sliding and it should appear. Not seeing it? Ask a friend or WCLAX volunteer\u00a0for help. Word to the wise, Geofilters like the one used at WCLAX are used instead of hashtags in Snapchat.<\/p>\n
This is a platform where you don\u2019t need followers, but the more you post, the more you\u2019ll get. Whoever you exchange snaps with most often become your best friends on Snapchat. And, guess what, you\u2019ll be able to see who\u2019s viewed your snaps which means\u2026 transparency! So, use it to share who you are and what you do. Show off how you WordPress!<\/p>\n
Need help deciding what to Snap? Look for fun, silly or outright hilarious moments. Document Alex\u2019s hair. Share a presentation slide or some swag. Make your friends who didn\u2019t attend jealous by private messaging them the fun you\u2019re having. Watch stories your fellow attendees post by sliding left and enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
