Ojai

We have a few seats open for this small workshop/lunch. If you're looking for an excuse to visit Ojai, here it is!

A DrupalQue is two slices of lean Drupal learning, wrapped around a Bar-B-Que. So let's all queue up for some Drupal learning fun on Saturday, June 26th. It's lean, because each session is about a specific aspect of Drupal.

We're hosting an open session on "Planning your next social media site" as part of next weekend's Super Happy Vlog House. This is mainly a discussion about planning Drupal projects for building social media sites.

What's a vlog house? It's like a super happy dev house, but for folks who love media making too. It's a place where people geek out over audio & video, software, programming, poetry, music, story-telling, television, film, web sites, new media and technology in general. We get together to share and learn, to have fun, to take a media walk, get things done and break bread.

Last time, folks asked for an intro session on Drupal. This session builds on that introduction and assumes a basic familiarity with content managements systems and social networks.

More than a demo of media-related modules, this is a facilitated group discussion around best practices, tools and services for building a new-media based web site or social network. Topics include: design considerations, platform features and choices, hosting services, out-sourcing, DIY, team-building, project planning, estimating resource requirements and costs. This session is aimed at people who are starting a new Drupal project, whether it be your first or not. This session is intended for content creators and project managers, as well as developers. The emphasis is on project planning.

Bring your questions, dreams and war stories. There is also an open lab with free wi-fi where you can meet-up with other Drupal heads and get into the details, experiment and try things out.
