Recently, the folks over at the Boston WordPress Group were kind enough to have me as a guest speaker during an event title the WordPress Theme Bake-Off.
I’d say the event went very well, and there were a number of great follow up questions. I demoed the premium Headway Themes (affiliate link) which also happens to be the same theme that I’ve built my own site on! The folks over at Boston WP also recorded the event (I come up around the 41 minute mark). I should also say that again, the purpose was less about declaring a winner and more about highlighting some of the strengths versus shortcomings.
In addition to Headway, the other themes we demoed were Thesis and Suffusion.
Here are the links to the demo sites:
Thesis: http://dev5.ab3testbed.com/ demoed by Alan Bergstein
Headway: http://dev4.ab3testbed.com/ demoed by David Gadarian
Suffusion: http://dev6.ab3testbed.com/ demoed by Jenn Nickerson
Update: Don’t forget to take a look at my post on Bake-Off 2.0 where we demoed PageLines, Genesis and the Hybrid Theme. Once again the BWPM was kind enough to invite me to the stage to present.
