Start: 
2009-09-15 18:30 America/New_York
Event type: 
User group meeting

Note: September's date was earlier announced as Sep 8. We moved to Sep 15 to give some space after Drupalcon.

We will be hosted by the MIT Drupal Group in Cambridge in Building 51 - Tang Center (mapquest) in room E51-149 . Thanks again to Ed Carlevale for hosting us and to Susan MacPhee for securing this space.

Lightning Talks

Everyone is welcome and encouraged to present for 10 minutes on a topic of their choosing. You may show off your Drupal site, ask some questions of the audience, give a module demonstration, share some marketing ideas for Drupal, and so on. Just keep it brief. No expertise or planning required - just do it.

Dinner

After the meetup, some of us will continue the conversation over dinner at MIT's Muddy Charles Pub. We will likely pre-order some pizza so it meets us there. We'll take a count about half way through the meeting.

I'm launching a podcast this week (not associated with my Harvard job) using RSS enclosure and some other modules. I could show the site and talk about that.

Here's a discussion about Location and Location CCK that might be helpful: http://groups.drupal.org/node/25370

Thanks.

That thread is a new one since I was last on that group. It looks like I should maybe start a new discussion specifically around porting to Location CCK over there.

Clickable Mapping in Drupal

Sorry I had to leave early, but I stumbled across some mapping tools today, in regard to Ed's question, and I thought this one might fit the bill without having to have to re-invent the wheel.

I think http://drupal.org/project/jq_maphilight matches Ed's requirements.
