Great Florida DrupalCamp
Thanks to Joe Moraca for helping me install Drupal on my laptop and to Bob O'Leary for helping me trouble shoot at the Florida DrupalCamp . Thanks to EVERYONE who helped put together the Florida Drupal Camp yesterday. You made me a Drupal enthusiast! See some pictures at http://tinyurl.com/dbpc8f
I wanted to share a problem and fix that I had yesterday. After the install, I got an error and at least one other person did too. The error message was:

Jobs board?
Companies always seem to have a shortage of experienced Drupal developers to hire, and there's always someone looking for work. How about we set up a job board to let the two connect? Maybe ask a fee for anyone posting a job listing (something small to help cover minor costs, maybe $20-50 per listing), but let anyone looking for work post their business cards/info for free? Or just do both for free.
