October Drupal Meetup
At the last meetup we decided that we're going to start holding the Philly meetups on a regular monthly basis, on the first Thursday of every month. For now I'm listing them all as being held @ Zivtech, but please feel free to suggest alternative venues if you feel so inclined. So, without further ado...
Please join the Philadelphia Drupal Group for the October Philadelphia Drupal Meetup.
We'll be talking Drupal, eating pizza, and drinking various beverages (some alcoholic, others not) from 6-9pm at Zivtech Headquarters in Old City. The pizza and drinks will be provided by the hosts (that's us!).

Read morepiwik vs. google analytics?
I noticed many/most of you (us?) seem to use Google Analytics. Have any of you been using Piwik and have any insight into how/why you made that choice? Aside from the local vs. cloudsource nature, any salient feature differences that swayed your decision?
Thanks,

Read moreD7 Site Building (2day), Presented by Zivtech
Drupal’s flexibility and performance capability makes it a ‘must have’ platform for organizations. But Drupal's power also comes with a price - a steep learning curve.
During Zivtech's D7 Site Building Workshop (2 day), we guide you along this learning curve. Our trainers teach strategies for building websites without custom code - using Drupal core and contributed modules. We highlight the best modules for common requirements, including media and file handling, gallery creation, workflow, and more. Attendees are engaged with hands-on examples all along the way.
Higher Education Track at Drupaldelphia 2011?
As you may know, Drupaldelphia 2011 is being held at Temple University on July 29th. At the last meetup we discussed having a "Drupal in Higher Ed track" (possibly with more than 1 presentation per time slot), and I'm wondering if there's interest in making it happen, and whether it would be useful to the edu folks at the camp.
