I wanted to create this thread so that people could post any links to notes, audio, video, presentations or other media from the Bay Area Drupal Camp this weekend. Leave a comment here pointing us to whatever you've put up online.

The Drupal Camp seemed to be a great success, and thanks to all who helped coordinate and sponsor it.

I recorded 12 different sessions, and you can plug this RSS Feed into iTunes or your favorite aggregator to quickly download the following audio files...

Here are the sessions from the first day:

Getting your site not to look like Drupal by Florian Loretan
Using jQuery in Theming by Rob Knight
Brief Drupal Patching Intro by Josh Koenig
Getting started with Drupal planning and maintence overview by Steven Peck
Visual Debugging with the Visualize Backtrace module by Kent Bye
The Business of Drupal by Dan Robinson
Module Development Balancing Client and Community by Karl Scheirer

And here is the audio from the 2nd day of BADCamp:

Discussion about Drupal Usability by Neil Drumm
CiviCRM Users and Developers Round Table by Dave Greenberg
Drupal for Scholarly Communication by Harrison Dekker
Drupal for Facebook by Dave Cohen
Drupal Theming by Dmitri Gaskin

The full BADCamp schedule with more session descriptions can be found here.

I know there were others who were recording media, taking notes and creating presentation slides and example code -- so please leave a link down below. Thanks.

Using jQuery in Theming Slides

I only used slides up until the demonstration, so I added notes, code and screenshots from my NYTimes.com demonstration to my slides and uploaded a PDF to slideshare:

Kent, thank you for recording theses sessions...curious on what make/model recorder you used? The sound is great.

Using the Zoom H4

KentBye's picture

Thanks Rob,

I'm going to use some of your jQuery theming snippets to simplify the Visualize Backtrace UI.

I was using the ZOOM H4 Portable 4 Track Digital Recorder (more).
It has really good sensitivity with just the stereo mic, but has the option to add two XLR-input external mics.
It can record 34 hours of mp3 audio or 6 hours of 16-bit *.wav w/ a 2GB SD card, and costs around $300.
My only complaint is that the user interface can be a bit unwieldy, but other than that it's very easy to set down at the front of the room and capture a discussion.
So I'd recommend having 2-3 of them at the next DrupalCon. :)

thanx for the H4 tip, I'm

Thanks Kent.

We had a lot of overlap in our recordings, so I won't bother posting mine.

Best,

Yeah, I noticed that.
We need better coordination next time between people who have recording devices :)

Feel free to post the audio or video of any of the sessions that I missed.

That's what I'm hoping for!

I'm a visual/task oriented learner, so every video I can find on Drupal helps me out tremendously!

These are fantastic resources everyone! Makes me think maybe we can go bigger than the whole "how do we have the dojo on drupal.org" question and create a "media" section for the main mothership site...

AWESOME!

Sure, no problem.
Just be forewarned that there may be a large Drupal screencast come down the feed every now and again. :)

Thank you!

In case you missed 'em, i published a smattering of posts about Bad Camp before, during and after the event. Many are fortified with links to resources, sprinkled with conversation topics and general banter about the Drupal community. A few podcast coming soon too featuring interviews with Colin, Dmitri, and William. And, in case you were wondering, I am using my Jupiter beer glass nightly.
