Useful Drupal Links
These are useful links for new developers to drupal.
This is a wiki page so feel free to add to it.
Staying Current requires the right feeds.
I pride myself on keeping current on Drupal news and especially on new Drupal modules. One way I do that is I read alot of RSS feeds daily. Every morning when I sit down to begin my day I start with reading my aggregated feeds on my website - http://www.hofmockel.org/aggregator/categories
- I find the Planet Drupal aggregated RSS feeds a little too inclusive - http://drupal.org/planet
Here is an export of my aggregator_feed table (Just the Drupal related ones). Of course you could just read it directly on my site if you like. But if you only read one make it the "New Module" list on Drupal.org - http://drupal.org/taxonomy/term/14/0
Switchback dedicated to A2Drupal
At our last meeting, Stephen Colson announced the launch of Switchback a CMS-driven web development and design company. This is of significance to the Ann Arbor Drupal Users Group (A2Drupal) in two ways.
Packt Publishing supports A2Drupal
Check out this email I got from Packt Publishing. They asked that I review the new Drupal 5 Themes book. I agreed and asked if they would help us celebrate our groups one year birthday coming up in March with a few books as door prizes.
Apress Discounts on books
I read this - http://groups.drupal.org/node/6033
Our group is already members of the Apress User Group Program so I too got a letter from Apress.
"This week, I received a letter from Apress asking me to "remind your members of their exclusive Apress User Group Program discount of 25% off ALL Apress books!" I scanned the letter which you can view in the attached PDF file."
I also read this comment - http://groups.drupal.org/node/6033#comment-17113
Here is a link to a 46% discount on "Pro Drupal Development"

Ann Arbor Spark provides new home
The Ann Arbor Drupal User Group has a new meeting location! Our next meeting will be at Ann Arbor Spark on 27Aug07 at 7pm. Ann Arbor Spark has generously offered to sponsor our group by providing a regular central meeting location. They have promised us the last Monday of the month into the foreseeable future. This will bring some needed stability.
A2hosting support and installation notes
A2Hosting has generously offered one free hosting account for our group and a 25% discount (coupon = a2drupal) for group members on all services.
The free account is a Small Biz shared host account. It seemed logical to me to load Drupal and tell the group about my experience.
