I flew out to Vancouver last Friday to join in Vancouver’s Drupal Camp 08. I’d do it again in a heartbeat!

Drupal Camp:

” …a volunteer-organized, peer taught, multi-track conference focused on the Drupal open source content management system…In a collaborative environment, the participants will share knowledge, establish best practices and learn new techniques. “

After ponying up $100 for a 4 star hotel room and a rental car for $22 bucks a day (priceline.com of course), I was all set. A 5 hour delay at the airport helped me get my slides in order. The conference itself was $21 bucks, and that included lunch and a t-shirt - you can’t go wrong!

When I wasn’t speaking, I was checking out talks on how to harden Drupal sites, create an installation profile, theme Drupal, and generally swap tips with a VERY ACTIVE community. If only Calgary’s Drupal community was this well organized. I’m coming again if they’ll have me - kudos to Rain City and others for putting on such a great event!

Slides and stuff are available here.

That's it. What Next?
