News Websites built with Drupal (DrupalCon)

I watched an interesting speech at the Drupal Conference Barcelona about newspapers stepping into the online world and their rather ancient methods. Even when using Drupal they’re mostly not taking full advantage of the web 2.0 functionality provided. A couple of positive examples are listed below, one of them being Welt Debatte for which I did the design.

Drupal Conference 2007 in Barcelona, Spain

I’m looking forward to being at the Drupal Conference in Barcelona, Spain taking place from 19th until 22nd September 2007.

Lots of interesting speeches, workshops and people to meet. For example, a case study about the migration of the New York Observer to Drupal, Advanced JavaScript techniques, the FormAPI and much more.

d.construct 2007 in Brighton, UK

I am happy to have been invited by one of my clients to attend this year’s d.construct conference in Brighton, UK.

There were a lot of interesting speeches about user experience design and agile development in general. Speakers included Jared Spool from UIE.com, Peter Merholz (President) from Adaptive Path, George Oates (Principal designer) from Flickr.com, Denise Wilton (Designer) from moo.com and many more. The only side-effect of the 45mins speeches was that they couldn’t deepen their thoughts.
