Photos Of Torino Italy
As of this writing there are 5 photos in the WordPress Photos Project of Torino Italy, where WordCamp Europe will be held this year. Three of them are labeled Turin.
I'd LOVE to see many many more before WordCamp so people can use them in their blog posts. So if you're in Torino any time soon, please take pictures and post them!
Here's what's there so far:

Rebecca Gill grew up with fairly random adult guidance, but this gave her some gifts that most kids don't get.
A village raised me and as I shifted from one group to another, I cultivated some hidden talents I did not know I possessed. The diverse environment taught me to read a room and become a chameleon of sorts. I would monitor those around me, watch for shifts in their demeanor, and adapt my behavior to match.
Rebecca's's essay is available on HeroPress.com.
