This Wednesday's Denver/Boulder Drupal Users' Group Meet-Up will have, among other things, a presentation by Al Steffen on working on Drupal using Eclipse, the open source integrated development environment that makes coding -- and specifically coding for Drupal -- so much easier.

Also, Matt Tucker will continue our ad hoc series on things to do with Views by giving a little overview of Draggable Views, which is a module that pretty much does what you'd expect: drag-and-drop ordering of nodes in Views.

But that's just part of the meet-up. As always, the agenda is open.

pingVision has won a W3 Award in the Magazine category for the website for Popular Science, PopSci.com. The W³ Awards honors creative excellence on the web, and recognizes the creative and marketing professionals behind award winning sites, marketing programs, and video work created for the web.

This is the third award pingVision has won for the PopSci website, having won a Gold Horizon Award in the Magazine/News category earlier this year and the Best Drupal Showcase award at DrupalCon Boston 2008.

The regularly scheduled Drupal Meet-Up is happening this Wednesday, October 8th, starting at 6:30pm right here at pingVision.

The agenda is open this month, so bring your questions, your showcase sites, your hot new tip, and your questions. Connect with others who are into Drupal!

The first half-hour will be meet-and-greet, with pizza and beverages.

Whether new to Drupal or an expert, you are welcome!

pingVision is delighted to support DrupalCon Szeged 2008 with sponsorship.

Although we are not sending anyone to Szeged, we support DrupalCon as a semi-annual event that helps cultivate and strengthen the Drupal community. There's nothing like putting hundreds of Drupal aficionados in the same room to generate some real excitement and learning. Not only that, any profit from the conference goes to benefit the Drupal Association (of whose General Assembly I am a member). (We're hoping there's a profit. As of last week, meeting the expenses was looking to be a near thing. We certainly want to do our bit to help avoid a deficit!)
