NYCPHP Meetup

[New York PHP]

"Drupal vs. Joomla: Who rules, who drools?" is a talk to be given by Forest
Mars to the Joomla! SIG of New York PHP, on Thursday April 10th, 2008 at the
Robert Half Technology Center. Attendance is open to all, RSVP is required
for building access.

To RSVP send your name to <ircmaxell at yahoo.com>. Robert Half location
information follows below.

The full announcement may be found at http://www.joomlanyc.org/

In a talk that's sure to be simultaneously light-hearted and heavy-hitting,
Forest Mars breaks down the differences (and some similarities) between the
Joomla! and Drupal content management systems, neither of which, it should
be noted, are even in the top 10 of CMSes (according to a secret study not
released by Google.) The talk is aimed primarily at Joomla! developers who
want to see how the other half lives, which is somewhat logical since
migration from Drupal to Joomla is a bit like driving the wrong way during a
Grand Prix.

Forest Mars is a Web Developer and Network Architect best known for starting
New York's Only Free Internet Cafe and the first Wireless ISP in Manhattan.
He is currently working on a Video-on-Demand system for smart phones, but
