August Drupal User Group

Robots, entities, pizza, beer and you!

Along with his fine talents as a Drupaler, Aiden is involved with the Hillsboro High School robotics team. He and the team will be doing a brief presentation on how the local Drupal community can get involved and help kids in technology... and play with ROBOTS!

As if robots weren't cool enough, we'll be talking about entities this month. Anne and Greg will be presenting about Entity metadata wrappers and the correct way of getting and setting field values. If you've ever had to reference $node->field_foo[$node->language][0]['value'], you shouldn't miss this.

This month, pizza is being sponsored by the awesome folks at ThinkShout. Most people know them for their great work on RedHen CRM. What many don't realize is that they also have an office above Hot Lips Pizza... the perfect location for DUG pizza sponsors! We'll also have the OpenSourcery kegerator flowing and a selection of non-alcoholic beverages.

As with last month, we'll start off with about 30 minutes of food and socializing before diving into presentations. Following the DUG and announcements we'll head over to the Lucky Lab on Quimby (map) for more food, drink and socializing.
