If you’ve never had the pleasure of hearing Kristina Halvorson speak, you’re really missing out. Of course I’m inclined to like her. The fact that she’s a champion of thinking about your content before building its home might have something to do with it. Anyone who goes anywhere near what eventually becomes content on the web should read this writeup of her talk on content strategy (and her book too I’m sure!) There might not be real rock stars at Do It With Drupal, but some of the web team from MTV.co.uk are here and graciously shared their experience with scaling Drupal to handle their crazy level of traffic and content. I sum up the talk here: I admit that I really had no idea of what Open Atrium was before I went to this talk. If you’re looking for an intranet in a box these guys are worth checking out: The second case study I attended involved the New York State Senate. They’ve managed a pretty impressive build-out in a pretty short period of time: I decided to focus on case studies for the first day, since there was an entire case study track. The first session I attended covered how The Economist began its move onto Drupal: I’ve been a wee bit busy this week covering the Do It With Drupal conference in New Orleans. It’s about time I start sharing some of the results! This first article gets into the first keynote, which set a tone of learning pragmatic information about how to build sites: #DIWD09 Do It With Drupal: Pragmatic Site Building I’m also tweeting the conference for CMSWire. I’m attending Do It With Drupal 2009 in New Orleans from December 9 through 11, to cover it for CMSWire. If you’re attending I hope to see you there! I’ll try not to be too heavily assimilated. |
