Sorry, I was out sick and needed to check on another event at the station, but I can now confirm that Tuesday, Sept 21, 2010 at 6pm is go.

Anything anyone wants to cover or present?

I'm still up for a little Twitter presentation since I am finding it fun and more and more useful as time goes on. I want to give a brief intro, to bring everyone up to speed, and then I want to talk about (show) different ways I have used Twitter.

And I can demonstrate our new website which will hopefully go live the next day.

But other suggestions are welcome

See you all a week today.

I'll present on something...

Hey All,

was thinking I'd make the trip out for this. It's been a while since I connected with the western mass drupal scene and we've got a few things to share.

I can do a short presentation on The Definitive Guide to Drupal 7, which we've been slaving away on for a few months, and also spend a few minutes on Agaric's vision for the future of drupal development, complete with openoffice slides that have lots of colors and fancy transition animations...

I am there, dude

~30 mins is fine, but it will be fine if your presentation requires longer.
