I'm considering relocating my family to the Phoenix area and am interested to know about Drupal opportunities in the area. I currently live in a rural area of Idaho and am sick of the cold winters. I have been working remotely as a freelancer and contractor for various companies around the U.S., but would love to settle down with a local employer in the Phoenix area.

I'd like to know what it's like to be a Drupal developer living in and around Phoenix. How prevalent is Drupal in Phoenix? Do opportunities abound, or are they far and few? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

If you're at the Desert Code Camp this Saturday, Nov. 5, swing by and say hi! The Phx DUG has a table at the lunch, 12:30-1 pm, where we'll be hanging out, passing out info on Drupal and answering questions.

I thought the ASU folks might be interested in this site http://thesite.at/

A look at Google Analytics use in higher education, and a tag cloud of university home pages.

Enjoy - http://thesite.at/

I have registered an IRC channel for us to use. Join #drupal-phx or visit the Chat with the Drupal Community on IRC page for learning all about IRC and how to set it up.

Having a central spot to communicate in real time will be beneficial and will help our community grow.

Our group will be listed on the regional drupal channel page once the paperwork gets approved.

The founders of LaunchSpot have offered their location to the drupal meet up group. LaunchSpot is located near 52nd st. and Broadway. Contact Fred Von Graf if interested for a tour or scheduling.

The Phoenix Metro is your Drupal user group! Get involved. Tell us what you want in a Drupal User Group.

Take the survey!

Drupal 7 was released today, and release parties are being planned world-wide on Friday. We should make sure Phoenix and Arizona State University are on the map by throwing a party ourselves! Let's talk about a good place to have it, and if you or your organization have already started planning one, toss in any ideas you might have. It might be fun to mix things up a bit and meet somewhere new. Any ideas?
