Hello Milwaukee Drupal Programmers!

I am the CEO of a new start-up called PosiPair.com and I need to get a basic social network style website on the web within the next 30 days.
What would you do in my situation if you had to make a professional social networking website in 30 days or you would die? (figuratively... :)

Best,
Sarah

We are looking for a developer/designer/themer who can take our existing site content and get it ported over to Drupal 6.x. We have a basic theme that we like, but we want our branding look on it.

Please contact me at smonsen@alliance1.org for more details. We want to get something close to finished by the end of the yera, as we have 2008 budget money that we need to spend.

Who/Why:

For over 2 years Chicago Drupal has truly highlighted the benefits of an open source initiative. We have built resourceful bridges between many local Chicago establishments including non-profits, entrepreneurs, Drupal development companies, independent consultants, hobbyist, and others in the mid-west. Our goal for this Drupal Camp is to bring everyone together for open communication, education, fun, and industry networking.

What:

A few of us up here in Northwestern Wisconsin are trying to get together the first-ever Western Wisconsin BarCamp. We're in the early organizing phases - meaning mostly we're mulling it over and looking for a time and place. Of course, the BarCamp will feature lots of Drupal love.

Want to help out?

There was quite the demand for Drupal at both BarCampMilwaukee and BarCampMadison. A couple of us are getting together to start planning a Drupal Camp. I've set up a drupal wiki (from an installation profile, total install time 15 minutes -- due to a slow shared host database server) at http://drupalcamp.blakehall.org

We're still in the VERY early stages of planning so we don't have details (like a date) yet.

If you're interested in helping plan feel free to post links, session ideas, etc...
