Drupal for Good

Inspired by public demand, we are organizing the 1st ever VoIP Drupal webinar on Thursday, May 12th @ 1pm EST!

As part of this webinar, you will learn about VoIP Drupal, a new framework that makes it easy to build websites that literally pick-up the phone, make calls, record messages, broadcast audio, and more.

Hello all,

Join us in this hands-on session to learn about the internal workings of the VoIP Drupal platform and create your first Drupal site that makes and receives phone calls.

What: A hands-on introduction to the VoIP Drupal platform

Date: April 23, 2011 @ 1pm-3pm EST

Expected audience:
* Drupal developers
* Representatives from companies, governments and non-profits that either use are considering using Drupal

Hello everyone,

Here is the footage of last week's VoIP Drupal announcement at DrupalCon Chicago 2011:

http://www.voipdrupal.org/node/152

The video provides background information about the VoIP Drupal initiative, describes the overall organization and roadmap of the project, and concludes with potential applications of the platform.

Thanks so much to the VoIP Drupal team, to CivicActions, and to everyone who provided constructive feedback throughout this journey. We are now looking for partners to test VoIP Drupal, contribute code, and make sure it lives up to its expectations!

At Drupalcon? Join us Thursday 12-1PM in the Erie meeting room for Revolutionary Drupal: Coding and Supporting Social Change

Technology doesn't drive social change, but it is one tool used -- from the streets of revolutionary Cairo to community organizers in Detroit. Can we help support these social change movements with Drupal? Are there ways we can code and structure Drupal projects to make them more useful to activists? Does Drupal have a role in protests and strategic direct action?

This session will be an open discussion for those working around social change, case studies of using Drupal, and brainstorming for ways we could collaborate or support Drupal projects that support social change.

Hello all,

We have just put together a little "sandbox site" to release news about VoIP Drupal and let people play with the main features of the platform: http://voipdrupal.org/.

We will be adding tons of features to that site in the next couple of weeks. In the meanwhile, it would be great if you could spend some time there, try the tools and give us your feedback.

Best,

Leo and the rest of the VoIP Drupal team

Hello all,

It is with great pleasure that I would like to announce the first release of the VoIP Drupal platform: http://drupal.org/project/voipdrupal!

VoIP Drupal is an innovative framework that brings the power of voice and Internet-telephony to Drupal sites.

VoIP Drupal can be used to build hybrid applications that combine regular touchtone phones, web, SMS, Twitter, IM and other communication tools in a variety of ways, including:

The application is a website that contains an interface to the the Drupal API
and a request handler for Twilio. Sometimes called "headless Drupal",
examples can be found here. Additional info <a

Hi folks,

I wanted to let you all know about a new module we just released that integrates BSD Tools, Blue State Digital's CRM system, with Drupal. Many of you know BSD Tools from its use to power My.BarackObama.com, and it's use by other organizations such as the DNC, United Way and NAACP.

You can learn more about the module on our blog at http://ow.ly/3P0ZN. If you want to download it, you can do so on GitHub at https://github.com/socialcontxt/bsdapi.

Let us know if you have any questions.
