We are particularly interested in pictures of WordPressers with their dogs to use in presentations during the weekend in the spirit of helping to break down barriers between different languages, web specialisms and countries.<\/p>\n<p>We have been running surveys and interviews on WordPressers and their dogs (and cats) and discovering how conversations about pets can often help bring people together and break down conversation barriers especially if you are new to a community, speaking the language of the event for the first time or talking with attendees from different sectors of work.<\/p>\n<p>So find your four-legged friend, with or without a bit of WordPress swag, and take that picture.
