Start: 
2013-01-31 19:00 - 21:00 America/Chicago
Event type: 
User group meeting

Different bat time and same place, you say? Yes, we have moved to the last Thursday of every month instead of Mondays. Schedules have changed and we are giving this a whirl.

Only local images are allowed.Meeting:
We will be spending the first hour chatting it up about any questions, comments surrounding Drupal. It's "all in", so bring your questions about Drupal projects you are working on. If we can prevent you from buying a new stress ball, it's a win!

Second hour, Ann Greazel will be presenting on a current project: building an "intranet". As this particular project progresses, it's more of a portal for content repository. The details are as follows:

Drupal 7
Responsive (optional)
Dashboard (personalization ability)
Events (pulled from current system or rebuild in Drupal)
Internal News Items (expiration capability)
News items
Secure log in
Directory
Forms
Include Online Store (exists, just link or create view?)

A little about me: I am a graphic designer Drupal Themer (beginner). So far, I'm exploring the following modules/themes:

Views
Web forms
Adaptive Theme
Omega
Open Atrium
domain access vs. node access

I will present my wire-frame concepts (Balsamiq) and dev desktop exploration on my local machine (minimal at this point). The goal is that this presentation will lead to a discussion and some recommendations.

Hope to see you there!
