We got class!
July 16, 2008 - 8:06am — allieI must admit I'm pretty excited about our upcoming Drupal for Non-profits class. Our primary mission has always been to help people get the resources they need to get a lot done. For that reason, most of our development work has been focused on mail, contact management, donation, and tracking tools to help people get their maximum benefit from their online resources. The cool thing about open source is, you can give it away and still have it for yourself, so after a customer helps to fund module or a feature, it's available for everyone.

Feed the Site: Working with the Aggregator
What if we told you that you could have access to thousands of blogs, news sites, and other content, for free, right in your own site? How much would you pay? One hundred dollars? One thousand dollars? How about zero dollars? That's right, it's free!
Come learn about syndication feeds, and how you can use them to creat a vibrant site, all without lifting a finger.
After attending this class, you'll know how to find feeds, how to incorporate them into your site, and how to feature syndicated content in new and unique ways.
Mailing List Basics

Putting the C into your CMS
Drupal is a Content Management System, or CMS. The practice of entering content, however, is often left as a process of trial and error for Drupal users.
