Columbia Drupal Meetings Picking Up Steam

Monday night we had our third Drupal Columbia meet-up at the Richland County Public Library and had 7 attendees.  It was exciting and very encouraging since the first two meetings were only 3 people. 

Most people attending were new to Drupal but I was glad to see some representatives from Pure Fishing (www.purefishing.com) there.  Pure Fishing is a company that owns several well known fishing brands, including Shakespeare, which has long had a presence here in Columbia, and Mitchell, which has a very attractive Drupal Site at www.fishmitchell.com.  

I spent quite a bit of time explaining blocks and CCK and views, and Bob from Pure Fishing took a few minutes to show us the MagicZoom feature used on the Mitchell product pages.  Very impressive, if you asked me-- here's an example:  www.fishmitchell.com/products/reels/avocet%C2%AE-ii-gold-series.    You can read more about Magic Zoom here:  www.magictoolbox.com/magiczoom

We agreed to have future meetings at RCPL,  6:00 pm on the Second Monday of each month.  The next meetings are April 12 and May 10.  Be there or be square!
