Greater Los Angeles Drupal (GLAD)

This group discusses the subject matter of book, points out the errors in the book and discusses the differences between Drupal 6 and Drupal 7. There is no preparation for this week's group, but be prepared to read at least 2 chapters of the book for the following week.

What to bring

Just bring your laptop, your business cards or whatever else you need. You're also welcome to bring some light food, sodas or beers to share with others at the meetup.

Please note that our guest wireless network is limited to 1Mb per client, so bring your MiFi router or a phone you can tether with if for some reason you need a lot of bandwidth. Access to our high-speed network is included with a Droplabs membership.

We've planned a site visit to Los Angeles Center Studios on April 12, 2012, at 2:30pm, to determine if it will work as the venue for the free Drupal Design Camp conference we're planning. In the tradition of several other site visits that we've gone on, this visit is open to anyone and is an excellent opportunity for anyone interested in starting to help organize this event.

Several of us are meeting beforehand at Droplabs, the venue of the High Performance Drupal and Downtown LA Drupal meetups. We will be leaving Droplabs promptly at 2pm. You're welcome to meet us no later than 2pm at Droplabs (where parking is free) or at 2:30pm at LA Center Studios.

Please sign up or comment below if you're interested in joining us as we tour the facilities. Those who sign up will be on this site visit's mailing list. We'll send you our phone number and any last-minute details if there are any.

What to bring

Bring a camera if you have one.

This evening's tutor is @christefano, one of the developers and architects with Exaltation of Larks. This time block is devoted to you, so bring your questions and homework to work on. The tutor's time is on a first-come, first-served basis.

We're also pleased to announce that watching videos on Build a Module.com is FREE at Droplabs and that we're incorporating a mentored training approach at these open tutoring sessions. Build a Module.com has over 600 videos on Drupal development and site building and there's something for every skill level. Be sure to bring your headphones.

This is the third session for this tutoring series at Droplabs and we welcome your feedback. We'll try to introduce a Users Helping Users concept, so if you're of a certain level, are waiting for an answer, and can help another, please do so!

This event is a fund raiser to benefit Droplabs and has a sliding scale donation of $10-20. No one will be turned away. Donations go directly toward the venue and helping to keep Droplabs free for the community.
