Greater Los Angeles Drupal The 1st Tuesday of the month is here and it's time for another Downtown Drupal meetup! Join us via webcast on Tuesday, October 7, 2014 between 7-9pm Pacific.

Webcast URL: https://glad.zoom.us/j/314665870

Are you new to Drupal or the Downtown Drupal meetup? Come learn about Drupal and how others like yourself are using it for their project, business or organization. We promise not to talk down to you.

Drupal Show & Tell

At this online meetup we're having another show and tell. We'll have some quick introductions, news and announcements, and then we'll be going into 5-minute presentations (called lightning talks) on the projects that each person is working on.

Did you recently attend a great Drupal or tech event that you want to tell us about? Are you currently having a problem that you need help with? Did you solve a problem recently and now have a solution to share with the group? You'll have up to 5 minutes to present and then up to 5 more minutes for Q&A with the other attendees.

Mobile Development Boot Camp

We're also going to be discussing the upcoming Mobile Development Boot Camp (planned for January, 2015) and how we're building on the previous boot camp that Droplabs hosted in 2013. The mobile boot camp will be all about creating mobile apps and connecting them with your Drupal site. Tune in to hear all about it and how you can get ready.
