While I am not a fan of Drupal, I am a fan of traveling and San Francisco has been on my list for a few years now. I am also a fan of industry conventions and free stuff, heh.
You may be wondering what Drupal is. Drupal is a content management system that was invented by Acquia’s Chief Technology Officer, Dries Buytaert. It’s roughly a decade old, but its popularity has skyrocketed within the last few years, with everyone from Sony Music to the White House using it. It’s open source, which means it is free — however, the learning curve is serious. If you would like to learn more, such as tools you may need to get started, or simply what a content management system is, you may go to www.drupal.org.
