# Video of my talk at WordCamp Chicago 2013

This summer, I had the chance to attend and speak at an awesome [WordCamp Chicago 2013](https://chicago.wordcamp.org/2013/).
In [my session](https://chicago.wordcamp.org/2013/session/tales-of-a-plugin-developer-dont-repeat-my-mistakes/)
I spoke about some mistakes that I had made while developing the WP-Table Reloaded
plugin and how it was replaced by TablePress. It ended up being a rather personal
talk with some history and background on the plugins, so I guess that the title 
_Tales of a Plugin Developer (Or: Don’t repeat my mistakes, please!)_ was justified
🙂

Thanks to the great organizers, the [video of my talk](https://wordpress.tv/2013/12/05/tobias-bathge-tales-of-a-plugin-developer-dont-repeat-my-mistakes/)
is now available on [WordPress.TV](https://wordpress.tv/). You can also check out
the [presentation slides](https://www.slideshare.net/TobiasBg/wcchi-2013).
