The Orange County Library System (Orlando, Florida) is seeking candidates for our current Drupal Web Developer positions. To learn more about these Full-time opportunities, please see the job description at https://jobs.drupal.org/orange-county-library-system/job/10965.

As most of the Orlando folks know, our meetups have been "lightly attended" the past few months. In order to pump some new life into the group, some changes are a coming...

NEW TWITTER:
First, we just created a new twitter account for the group under @orlandodrupal. Please follow us to keep up with the times.

NEW EMAIL:
We also have a multi-admin monitored email address for the group at orlandodrupal@gmail.com. This address is accessible by myself, Alex McCabe and Ryan Price. Please use it as a backup form of contact, after G.D.O. and our Meetup.com page.

We are a medium sized business who has a Drupal website, but no one in our company has Drupal-specific skills and have started coming across a few somewhat large issues.

I would like to speak with people regarding a job to fix some issues with our Drupal installation. Work would have to begin quickly, as some of these issues are time-sensitive.

My email address is mconnolly@iotrak.com and phone number is 407-598-1500 Ext. 104.

Thank you very much.

The monthly meetup of the (central) Florida Drupal User's Group took place on Saturday, January 17 at the MindComet office in Altamonte Springs. Eight people attended the meetup and we covered 3 topics: Andrew Riley presented a case study of the Disney's Children's Hospital web site, Ryan Price talked about the menu system in Drupal 6, and then we all continued the planning of DrupalCamp Florida - to be held February 7.

More details after the break...

We had a (central) Florida Drupal User's Group meetup at Mind Comet's offices in Altamonte Springs yesterday. Despite it being the weekend before Christmas, we had a good turnout - 12 people, including 5 new attendees (Daryl, Brenda, Damien, Kim, and Raheem).

The two main topics we covered were the "Do It With Drupal" conference and theming with Views 2.

The Florida Drupal User's Group met this past Saturday - about 17 people were in attendance. The group broke down as follows:

• new to Drupal: 6
• less than 1 year: 7
• more than one year: 4

Thanks to Jay and MindComet for letting us use their facilities! If you have a need for Interactive Marketing, please check them out.

About a dozen Drupal developers met at Orlando Public Library yesterday to discuss Drupalcon Boston and future meetups in Orlando.

I gave a presentation about Drupalcon Boston covering Dries' keynote, the future of Drupal, and a quick summary of some of the sessions I attended. The rest of the time was spent with discussion introducing ourselves to each other and planning for future meetings and what we need to do to for the Florida group to gain some momentum.
