DrupalCon Portland

There were tons of informative sessions at Drupalcon in Portland! Except for the ceaseless rain and the fact that my roommate canceled at 1 pm on Monday, it was a wonderful conference. And I loved the Women in Drupal reception.

With our app, you won’t be sitting around saying, “Well I don’t know… What do you wanna do?” We’ve researched, deliberated, and made some cut-throat decisions to compile our list of the best things to do in Portland. Our fun, interactive app lets you live it up at DrupalCon by showing you what’s going on at the conference and the hot spots to check out in Portland, along with making it easy to connect with other Drupal lovers. Explore Portland the easy way. Choose from 7 different categories—food, coffee, breweries, biking, hiking, gardens, and film.

Saforian developed an event app for the upcoming DrupalCon Portland. We’ve researched, deliberated, and made some cut-throat decisions to compile our list of the best things to do in Portland. Our fun, interactive app lets you live it up at DrupalCon by showing you what’s going on at the conference and the hot spots to check out in Portland, along with making it easy to connect with other Drupal lovers. Not only is the app loaded with useful easy-to-access information but the way it's presented and its user interface are incredibly fun and interactive.

From a short cursory look at some of the proposed sessions, in no particular order:

• The Library of the Future - Solr Search and Responsive Design for Multnomah County Library
• Re-imagining libraries on the web: a case study of the Stanford University Libraries website redesign
• Migrating the Library [GWU]

I may have missed something so feel free to add.

Hi Folks,

Firstly, thanks to everyone who contributed to our previous campaign at Drupal Bangalore a few months ago in support of a Drupal Developer/contributor/author who is in need of medical help.

Details of Earlier Campaign

Today, I Invite you all to help Vincenzo Rubano travel to Drupalcon Portland.

I'm looking forward to attending Drupalcon Portland. I'm looking for a ride. I've booked accommodations for Sunday night through Thursday night, possibly Friday night. Please contact me at http://www.seascapewebdesign.com.

Hooray! I just registered for DCon Portland. Now I'd like to find somebody (or somebodies) to room with.

I will be flying out on Monday and flying back on Friday (so that I can participate in the sprints). So, I'll be staying over on Monday - Thursday evening. The official DrupalCon hotel (http://portland2013.drupal.org/portland/accommodations) has a rate of $139 / night for double occupancy. I'd be happy to share a room with somebody. Or, if we can get a group of people together and rent some other accommodation in the area I'm game to hear about that as well.

Bummer that there was no Drupal Rainbow gathering at DrupalCon Munich (that I knew about, anyway). This thread is to plan one for Portland. Any locals have ideas?
