DrupalCamp at the SouthEast LinuxFest

It's been a few months since I've been able to do much with Drupal, but I recently attended the DrupalCamp at the SouthEast LinuxFest (SELF) this past weekend.  This was particular exciting for myself because I had yet to attend a Drupal event.  Being in Charlotte I'm not too aware of many drupal users in the nearby area.  Even many of those in Charlotte are on the opposite side of town.  It was great to finally meet some of these drupal folks and hopefully in the future it won't take heading out of town to catch up with them again.

As far as the DrupalCamp itself, I thought it was a success for my first event.  Some of the sessions I attended were simply a review of what I already knew, while some others gave me insight into more areas of Drupal I need to research.

One bit of feedback I do have for presenters is that a presenter can make or break the session.  There were a few sessions where I could tell the presenter knew what he was talking about, however the presentation itself was lacking and in some cases added more confusion.  Presenting is not an easy task and not everyone receives information the same way, but I would stress that the best content can be lost in a poor presentation.

All in all, it was great to get out and I do plan on hitting some upcoming events.
