Throughout the years, many awesome things have happened on April 16th. In 1922, Annie Oakley set a record by breaking 100 clay targets in a row. In 1939, the Boston Bruins beat Toronto Maple Leafs to win the Stanley Cup. In 1940, the 1st baseball game was televised. In 1956 the 1st solar powered radios went on sale. In 1972, 2 giants pandas arrived in U.S. from China.
Let us continue this streak of awesomeness on April 16th 2009, by congregating at our beloved Morse Institute Library at 6pm (14 East Central Street, Natick, Massachusetts Study Room 1C) to talk about drupal and drupal related subjects.
There will be the usual lightning talks, and I'll be doing a demo of how to use cufon and other easy jquery stuff to make your drupal site as awesome as a panda shooting clay targets while listening to a solar powered radio...

I'm going to miss it...

I'll Be There
My first Drupal meetup -- sweet.
count me in!
I'm going to be in Boston during the day so I will be there!
Thanks for last night.
Thanks for last night. Man that DBscripts stuff (http://drupal.org/project/DBscripts) was way over my head, but was interesting to hear about and try to absorb some of it ;-) In my day to day Drupal work I pretty much never look at the database. I'd like to learn more about the Drupal DB, in particular how to move data from an existing sites DB to a Drupal site. I am using Node Import module on a site I am working on now, which is sort of OK, but would like to know how to get right into the DB tables and drop nodes in from another DB. I imagine there is a lot to know to do that right.
Thank You
I too offer my thanks.
The JQuery stuff wet my appetite further towards getting comfortable with JQuery, and Cufon may work its way at least into the project I'm working on now.
I confess that I barely hung on, loosely understanding the version control and DBscripts stuff, but it was enough to set me on the right path (e.g. get Git, not to mention Ubuntu, etc.) for which I'm truly grateful.
I'm hooked on these meetups, already suffering from withdrawal. :-)
In other words, I look forward to the next one!
I appreciate you all
I appreciate you all allowing me to go over version control and dbscripts for this meet up. This is the first time this meeting has gotten that "heavy", so I'll try to hold off for future ones and offer instead more small bite sized chunks :)
