It’s on … and, yes, I am involved with the event as a co-organizer.

Obviously the official announcements will be easily found at the official WordCamp Central site: http://2013.toronto.wordcamp.org/, but we will also be making use of the official unofficial WordCamp Toronto site at: http://wcto.ca where you will be able to see WordCamp Toronto as it is planned … and be able to participate in those discussions.
Some important points to note with this year’s version of WordCamp Toronto:

I am looking forward to an exciting next six months as we plan, organize, and have a great deal of fun presenting WordCamp Toronto 2013 …
… and I am looking forward to seeing everyone there, too!

It’s an interesting exercise in how computer gaming can be used to test various ideas, although I am not so certain it was an ideal test for “multitasking” as it requires a certain amount of manual dexterity above and beyond what I would think the primary testing criteria should be … which is mental acuity. What do you think?
