Santa Barbara Drupal

This Saturday, October 6, 2012 at 1pm, we're having a Barnraising for the launch of the new version of the Droplabs website, followed by festivities around the firepit celebrating the launch!

Steve and Cory have done a fantastic job on the website and it not only has some great new features, it looks great!

In the spirit of Droplabs, this is a potluck event, so please feel free to bring a liquid contribution to the afterparty, or snacks to help keep the developers' blood sugar level and their heads in the game. (This isn't necessary to attend, as your sparkling personality would certainly be motivation enough.)

For any changes to our agenda for the evening, stay tuned to this event announcement or click the Sign up button below (or both!) to be notified when the agenda has been updated.

This event is hosted by Droplabs, a collaborative Drupal event and coworking space in Downtown Los Angeles.

We're quickly gaining a reputation for being the only free coworking space around with a freemium business model: come work here for free and only pay for the extras, such as 24/7 access, equipment rental and a locker for your belongings.

To learn more about Droplabs, visit Droplabs.net, follow @Droplabs on Twitter, sign up at Meetup.com/Droplabs or like DroplabsLA on Facebook!

The projector, video conferencing support and organizational support for this event are being provided by Exaltation of Larks, a Drupal strategy, consulting, development and training company with a team of Drupal experts in Los Angeles.

We create fun websites, mobile apps, virtual worlds and e-commerce sites. Follow us at @LarksLA or like Exaltation of Larks on Facebook to learn more about our Drupal services and upcoming trainings.

It's been a while since we've had a movie night and it's time to do it again. Join us on Friday, September 21, 2012 at Droplabs, your FREE coworking and hackerspace in Downtown Los Angeles!

This is a great opportunity to get together with your colleagues and coworkers, watch some fun and thought-provoking movies, and just kick back and socialize.

Which movie will be shown is to be determined by the attendees! Post your suggestions and recommendations in the comments and vote on the ones that you want to see! If a movie gets a lot of votes but doesn't end up being selected, we might watch it at a future movie night.

Please note that commercial, feature-length films are obviously not eligible for this and won't be discussed here. Movies we've seen in the past been TED Talks, hacker-themed movies and DrupalCon keynotes and presentations.

We're happy to take part in yet another Drupal Coworking Friday, a free coworking day at Droplabs, your FREE coworking and hackerspace in Downtown Los Angeles.

Drupal Coworking Friday is a worldwide event spurred in part by the DrupalEasy Podcast #65, which featured Droplabs.
