GOSCON and Free Drupal Webinars

November 5th is GOSCON the Government Open Source Conference, and I’ll be there. In fact, I’m planning to volunteer a little of my time at the Drupal Booth, so stop by and say hello. Heck, you can even ask me about the http://go.usa.gov site. I promise, I will answer you.

I’m also planning to head over tonight to:

GOSCON OpenGov MeetUp!
Wed. Nov 4
6:00 pm.m to 10:30 pm
Aria Trattoria Lounge
1300 Pennsylvania Ave
Washington, DC

Now, for the Free webinars:

I got an e-mail about a couple of upcoming webinars and one is tomorrow. If you can’t make it to GOSCON, perhaps you can make it to a computer and register for one of these.

Nov 5th – CommonPlaces Presents: Reduce the Cost of Each New Website With Drupal Multi-Site

Time: 1:00 PM EDT

Register Now

Drupal’s elegant multi-site capabilities give businesses a repeatable framework on which to run many websites from a single installation of Drupal—enabling centralized system management while reducing the incremental cost of additional websites to almost zero. The benefits of multi-site include streamlined maintenance, lower operational costs, and the ability to target market segments in a more controlled way.

To successfully implement a multi-site installation, a business must also be aware of caveats and changes that may be required to their deployment model. This Webinar aims to be a primer of the benefits, and subsequent boundaries, of such a system.

If you are looking for a cost effective way to manage multiple websites, this Webinar will be just what you are looking for.
