At last night’s TriDUG meeting,  we had two stellar presentations and a preview to a new logo and identity for TriDUG (Triangle Drupal User Group).

Matt Kennedy from Four Clouds gave a great introduction Drupal Views. Andrea Ross from UNC, FPG Child Development Inst. wowed us with an introduction to Drupal Theming.

Both of these topics are very complicated and each presentor made them look easy to do in Drupal. We are very fortunate to have them both Matt and Andrea participate in TriDUG. We had a great turnout last night (over 30 people) and I know that I would like to learn more about each of these topics at future meet-ups.

Tim Swezy presented the new logo for the group. He’ll be posting a follow-up shortly to g.o. I think it looks great. It incorporates colors from each of the three main universities in the area, NC State, Duke, and UNC Chapel Hill, and I think is very representative of our user group in the Triangle.

We were also in a new location this month, at Red Hat headquarters. I think that had some influence on the attendance number. Perhaps we’ll keep meeting at Red Hat for the future meetings in Raleigh. (It definetly makes it easier for me, as a co-organizer.)
