Meetup

Well, the Chicago Drupal Meet Up Group's August event saw the worst weather of the month and in our CDMUG history. We had some seriously wicked weather, the highest measured winds I heard were 74 mph gust near Wrigley Field. Here's a link to a few (pictures) from the storm. However, we still had a excellent event with 12 brave and hard core drupalers attending.

A new block has been added to the left column of our CDMUG.org website. Basically, the reason for this "Meetup Badge" is to promote upcoming CDMUG meetup's in the great city of downtown Chicago. If you would like to add this badge to your personal site, I've attached a .txt file to this post, u will find the copy and paste code within.

Drupal Install Night was a great success. We must have installed 7 or so new websites in 3 or 4 different environments (Windows, Linux, Dedicated Virtual Server, etc.) Also there was an educational "d.o" discussion about the new Pro Drupal Development book. For example we discussed how the Drupal plumbing handles a web page request (outlined in the books 1st chapter on page 8). I can't speak for everyone but I'm sure we'd agree that Drupal has an incredibly flexible CMS framework.
