A Fantastic Weekend at Brighton DrupalCamp 2012

Brighton's first DrupalCamp took place 28-29 April and was a fantastic success for all those involved. The weekend gave delegates a great opportunity to meet and learn from peers. The wide range of sessions held something for everyone and I particularly enjoyed Richard Jones' talk on Commerce, Jonathan Brown's talk on Storage API (a revelation!), Kevin Elliot's clear and sensible talk on SEO, and Guy Schneerson's sage session on best practice when approaching Drupal projects.
Saturday evening provided an excellent environment to socialise and meet with many other Drupal enthusiasts from Brighton and beyond. Sunday consisted of a series of short barcamp sessions run by anyone who felt they had something to say or who wanted feedback on their projects. The Drupal community really excels at this with people generously sharing their time and expertise.
A big thanks to Brighton Area Drupal Association founder Steve Purkiss who got the ball rolling!
