walkah: drupalcamp

The third annual Drupal Camp Toronto event is coming soon. On Friday May 23rd and Saturday May 24th join the Toronto Drupal Users Group in celebrating two days of Drupal at the University of Toronto!

We're putting together an exciting event this year. We have John Resig coming to talk about jQuery and ActiveState will be giving away prize packages. Plus we'll have two full days of information - tips, tricks, case studies and howtos. Make sure to register soon! We already have over 100 people signed up!

Also, we are actively seeking both speakers and sponsors. Propose a session or contact us if you're interested in sponsoring or have other questions.

Hope to see you there!

As usual, I'm several days late blogging things - but Drupal Camp Toronto II came and went last weekend. I'd say it went off without a hitch - but I'd be lying. I definitely have a new-found (or rediscovered?) admiration for event organizers... it ain't easy. On that note, I'd like to send out a *huge* thank you to those that made it happen, specifically: Phillip Smith, Colan Schwartz, Dan Kurtz and Alan Dixon. Also, big thanks to Substance Communications for coming through with great tshirts in record time - I'll be recommending them to everyone doing tshirts in Toronto!

I also wanted to mention that I've uploaded slides for 3 of my 4 presentations: Welcome and Drupal Overview, OpenID and Intro to Module Development. I also did a semi-impromptu session, Building an event site in an hour which outlined the building of drupalcamptoronto.org (which was based on the work from the oscms summit site). I've had several inquiries about notes - list of modules, cck and views exports, etc. I'm actually working on a full, longer write-up on that... so stay tuned! :)

Thanks again, everyone! See you all next year (or at a user group meeting soon!).

The second annual DrupalCampToronto is all set to go next month! I'm looking forward to this event - as it should be a good chance to see lots of great Drupal folks without having to hop on a plane. I've also been trying to help grow the local community in Toronto and this should be an awesome event for that. We're booked for 2 days - May 11th and 12th (Friday and Saturday) in 4 rooms at the Bahen Centre at the University of Toronto.

Full details, registration and session proposals are all being handled at http://drupalcamptoronto.org/ . Hope to see ya there!
