La conferencia Drupal de este año en Barcelona me ha impresionado.
Hace 2 años los asistentes a la conferencia fueron 20 personas, el año pasado la cifra pasó a 50, y este año supera con creces las 300 personas inscritas, yo creo que en realidad habia 500.
El evento está realmente bien organizado.
Además el ambiente es increible, hay gente de todo el mundo y la gente participa mucho en los debates a diferentes niveles, desde el desarrollo de drupal, hasta los módulos, o mostrando aplicaciones que se han hecho con esta herramienta.
Algunas de estas aplicaciones son bastante “grandes”, me refiero a periódicos online de los estados unidos, sitios globals con grandes contenidos en varios idiomas como el web de Amnesty International, etc, etc
Durante las conferencias he intentado apuntar en el portatil las palabras clave interesantes, como referencia para seguir investigando en internet. Estos apuntes están muy resumidos, son solo pequeñas notas de cosas que he pensado se podrian investigar, pero igual pueden interesar a alguien.Están en inglés ya que las conferencias eran todas en este idioma.

Traditional newspapers are dead
Internet is much faster, to communicate news to the readers (for example blogs and such, and online newspapers)
Now with video streaming on the internet the new media will be also faster than tv

which is very easy to use (compared to traditional parsers SAX and DOM for PHP)
