We held the php|meetup here last night, and it was quite an event thanks to the skills of Nathan Rambeck, principal for the Rambeck Group, who walked us through some of the basics of Drupal. For the details of the presentation, take a look at the Rambeck Group’s website, where Nathan has kindly made the slides available.

Although the presentation itself was wonderful, not captured in the slides are the questions and answers that were strewn throughout the evening. Several people brought their sites along for diagnosis, and we were able to fix some of the more basic problems while we were here. For all of that, you’ll just have to come to one of the events (the next one will be in September. Stay tuned…)

Among other things, Jay Pipes, community relations manager for MySQL, was here to talk to us a little bit about the upcoming MySQL Camp. Check out their site for all the details on that upcoming event

Innova is slated to host the next two php|meetups, focusing on WordPress in September, then Joomla in October. If they are anything like last night’s presentation on Drupal, it should be a great time.
