Advice for marketer/Drupaler job seeker

Hey,

I teach Drupally stuff at Oakland University, in the business school. (If you were at the Michigan Drupal Camp, I was the dude who did the WYSIWYG session.)

I've got a bright student who'll be graduating in April, with a degree in marketing. She's taken my Drupal course, and worked on a couple of sites. She's a little older, with job experience and a good work ethic.

Are there jobs that would use her marketing and Drupal skills? Or places to look for jobs. Or events she should attend. Or other advice.

Looking for Consulting Firms who have experience with Drupal+Cloud Hosting solutions

Hello all,
I was wondering if anyone could recommend a consultant or firm in the local area that can assist with a few issues for cloud hosting and Drupal?

We need someone who knows all aspects of cloud hosting, and drupal deployment in to the cloud. The two Cloud Hosting Providers we are currently considering are RackSpace and Michigan Colocation, but are open to other suggestions. Does anyone have experience with these companies?

Thanks!

Regional Drupal Camps

So, we have a lot of Drupal Camps going on in the Midwest this year. This is a GREAT thing! It means the local communities are getting strong enough to start hosting these camps. I know this year our camp could have been a lot larger, our venue this year was big enough to handle something MUCH larger, but as I'm sure a number of others out there are experiencing some balance of sponsors, speakers, and attendees that may or may not already be committed to another Drupal Camp.

Moving Sites built on MultiSite to work with Domain Access

Hi,

we're in the process of moving our main site to Drupal and was intending on using multisite. We've already move one smaller site over doing just that, and will be moving another over soon.

Now our manager really likes the idea of sharing content across all sites, which I was guessing would mean using the Domain Module.

How hard is it, or more specifically, what would be the process of moving sites that each have their own database to use Domain Access, since what i understand is, it uses one database for all sites.
