Beer, pretzels, and Drupal in SE Michigan.
The intention of this group is to possibly foster a friendly user group meeting for Drupal in SE Michigan similar to semislug.
No current plans for such a meeting to take place, but it takes a group to set that up. This is the beginning of that.
I've been lacking as an admin of this group. Should someone who has been here a while want admin of this, message me.
Let's connect at Drupalcon Denver! #midrupal
FYI, any other Michigan Drupalers interested in meeting up at Drupalcon this week... we'll be using #midrupal on twitter to coordinate and connect! If you're looking for local friends to hang-out with for dinner, coding, coffee, etc. just send-out or look-out for #midrupal hashtags.

Seeking Drupal tech support
I am looking for someone with a lot of Drupal 7 experience to give me tech support at a reasonable rate, either per-hour or per-incident.
I am new to Drupal, and can't stand waiting for "free" support to develop answers to forum posts at drupal.org, so I'm willing to pay, for faster, better, focused help.
If there were a way of searching past discussions to see who's offering services, I would have done that, but alas...
Thanks,
Steven
November a2Dug Meeting
This Monday (November 28) is our monthly a2Drupal meeting. Considering the holiday this week, rather than a big formal meeting, Victor and I thought it would be a fun idea to do another "Help out on IRC" day. If you have any burning Drupal questions, feel free to bring them too.
If you are around, we would love to see you, so stop on by!
Location: Spark Central
Time: 7:00pm - 9:00pm

Read moreRegional 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.
