We’ve been to a few WordCamps in our day (GoDaddy sponsors camps worldwide), but the event tends to be particularly memorable anytime we head over the pond to Europe. WordCamp London was indeed memorable — and along the way we heard some things that made us laugh, think, or just generally happy.

Here’s @pfunder and @ifyouwillit’s list of favorite things we heard at WordCamp London. Enjoy the list, and follow these great people. They’re awesome!
