Do you have some slides that I can get ideas?
In September I am attending a conference which is a regional User Group Tech Conference. Most of the attendees will be end-users and the few web people will be volunteers from user groups. I am doing a presentation about Evernote, but have been asked to also do another session, to replace a presenter who was to talk about Drupal.
Since I just completed a new web site for the Association that is sponsoring the conference along with a couple of user groups, it will be a good opportunity to demo the Drupal site.
