December Meeting Potluck
Since our next meeting is smack dab in the middle of the holiday rush we've talked it and our December meeting will be a 2 hour meeting (shorter than planned) and it will be a Potluck! Yep, that's right, food + Drupal. We're asking that attendees come bring some type of food (home made or store bought) for everybody to share. We'll have some topics to cover like usual but this meeting will be a little more festive than usual :)

November Tampa/West Coast Drupal Meetup
Thanks to Stephen Barker and John Learned for showing up at the November Tampa Drupal Meetup. I was hoping that there would be a larger turn out, but I know that all of you Tampa Drupalers won't miss the 2010 Florida Drupal Camp in Orlando on February 20th & 21st.
jquery presentation
there is this guy... rey@reybango.com here in miami that is not in the drupal community but is one of the evangalists of jquery. He lives up the road from me, and I met him last night. Anyway, I mentioned that there was a Drupal camp in Orlando, and he already knew about jquery in DRUPAL. I asked him if he would be interested to doing a show and tell. And he agreed. He requested that I get him up to speed on what and how jquery is used in drupal, so I am working on some stuff for him. He also asked if there was any special sugestion that we would have.
November Central Florida Meetup
Join us on Saturday, November 21, 2009 from 1-3PM for a 2-hour meetup at MindComet's offices in Altamonte Springs.
We don't have anything scheduled yet for this meetup other than DrupalCamp 2010 planning which means we should have plenty of time for some good presentations, demos, or anything else.
FL DrupalCamp 2010 Email / Forum Signature Campaign
Hey everybody,
Everyone uses email, and I use it to communicate with mailing lists for user groups pretty frequently. This made me think that I could throw a line or two of text at the bottom of my email to talk about something I'd like to gently remind people about. A great example is this DrupalCamp.
I have started a personal email signature campaign for things like Florida Creatives and Likemind which I host locally, and I think we could employ a similar tactic with our communications throughout the web.

Drupal in Jacksonville
I"m really excited about the Drupal Camp coming up in February but unfortunately won't be able attend as some other events are already scheduled for that weekend. I'm wondering if anyone would be interested in a Drupal users meetup in Jacksonville at some point? I can take care of arranging but just want to gauge interest to see talk and meet the Drupal community in Jacksonville and the surrounding areas.
First Tallahassee Drupal Meetup = Success
Just want to report we had an awesome first Tallahassee Drupal Meetup. At The Conversation Factory in Tallahassee Florida 13 of us gathered to discuss all things Drupal. The group ranged from those evaluating Drupal for their organization to veteran programmers and geeks alike. We covered topics from installing Drupal to multisite Drupal installations, not hacking core, module awesomeness and some best practices for deployment. A huge thanks to Michael Calienes for allowing us to use his awesome space for the event.

DrupalCamp Florida 2010 Hotel?
I've been in contact with a number of people around the state regarding DrupalCamp Florida and I've had several people ask me about hotels near the event.
Perhaps someone local to the Orlando/Altamonte Springs area (whose name isn't Andrew) can step up and find a hotel near MindComet's offices and see if we can work out some sort of group rate? This would be valuable information that we can put on the web site and it might entice more people to attend and stay for both days.
Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?
Thanks,

Potential Participating Non-Profit Organization for DrupalCamp 2010
With plans for Florida DrupalCamp 2010 well underway and our discussions about building a site for a non-profit organization on Day 2 of the camp, I figured I'd create a place to start capturing all of the good ideas as well as names of potential non-profit partners for the event.
