Last SFDUG of the year and we have a an awesome lineup of really cool Drupal Topics. For the Showcase site - Jon Luini from Chime Interactive is going to show off the brand new Ben Harper websitewhich has some really cool features, like a custom built ajax framework and great integration with Facebook using Dave Cohens Drupal / Facebook module. Dave Cohen will present with Jon to show off the integration of Facebook in a live site. Ben Harpers Facebook page has 844,432 fans.

Greetings Bay Area Drupalers,

Note: We are meeting on the 3rd Thursday this month. I figure going head-to-head with Thanksgiving is a losing battle. We will also be meeting on the 3rd Thursday in December.

This month Michael Cole will be presenting on Drupal and Version Control. If you aren't using version control with your Drupal installation, you are flying without a net. Michael will present on the whys, hows and whats of version control and Drupal integration.

Greetings Bay Area Drupalers,

Wow, BADCamp was super-successful. Hundreds of people got a chance to meet each other, ask questions, share what they know, build community and contribute to Drupal itself. I hear a bunch of work got done on the DrupalConSF site, and there was a somewhat working version of Views for Drupal 7 by the end of the weekend.

But I am sure some of you still have questions to ask, and tips to share. So come on by this months Berkeley Drupal Users group for our annual after-BADCamp open Q&A.

Greetings Bay Area Drupalers,

Greeting Bay Area Drupalers,

This month we have some tasty treats for your Drupal barbecue.

Michelle Ziegmann, of Educational Technology Services here on campus, will be showing off the great new Drupal-based site they have just rolled out: http://ets.berkeley.edu. She will be talking about their IA, UI design and some cool and less common modules they used (including Node Relationship, ThemeKey, Revisioning/Workflow, and CAS).

Greeting Bay Area Drupers,

Is the relentless beautiful weather getting you down? No problem. You can exchange the glorious summer sun this Thursday for a double helping of Drupal goodness.

Search and Drupal has been a huge topic this year, as Acquia has been pouring resources into integrating Apache Solr. Andre Angelantoni will be presenting on his experience customizing Apache Solr for France Telecom and Cleantech.com. He will be showing how to implement faceted search, which combines the best of traditional searching and browsing.

This month we are looking at monitoring your existing Drupal site.

Jen Lampton, of Jeneration and Chapter 3, will show off her new Total Control Admin Dashboard module (http://drupal.org/project/total_control), which leverages Views and Panels to create a replacement for the default Drupal Admin page.

And Chris Bryant, of Gravitek Labs, will present work they have done on enhancing Drupal statistics.

Jen & Chris are both seasoned Drupal pros, and long time BDUG contributors. It should be a fun meeting.

See you all there,
Tao Starbow
