Screencast: Creating a Library Database Page with Drupal
-- Link to Full Version (800x600) here... --
In anticipation of my talk 'Drupal in Libraries' that I'll be giving to the Metropolitan Library System on Fri., 2/29 (1:30p-4:30p), I'm releasing the screencast "Creating a Library Database Page with Drupal".
The talk will be about Drupal in the context of Open Source Software and Content Management Systems as well of course as its application in a library environment. (more info and rsvp...)
The screencast goes over the points I'll be making in the second part of my talk.
Have a look and tell me what you think.
UPDATE: The slides and audio from my presentation are now available. You can access them by going here...

Pronounciation of Drupal
Leo, I would like to point out that you are pronouncing Drupal wrong. You can go to http://drupal.org/node/130207 to check what I am saying. It is not drew-paul, it is drew-pull or droople. Sorry, I just find it REALLY annoying when someone pronounces words and names wrong.

Guilty as charged
Guilty as charged. In my defense, although I had been working on 'Drupple' since the end of 2004, I had never met another human being face-to-face who actually pronounced the thing one way or the other. So the German in me -- or maybe the French -- thought to stress the final syllable.
The good news is, I plan on updating the video for D7 and part of the motivation is to remove this stain from my reputation.
Thanks!
This is a very helpful video for thinking about taxonomy and views, even for Views2, gets you going in the right direction. I did not mind the pronunciation at all, actually I found it quite refreshing!
Thanks Leo!
Re: Thanks!
You're welcome. As I said before, I really have to reserve some quality time to update that thing.

I have gone through several tutorials and videos online and believe me your "creating a library database page" video was the best show-by-example tutorial on cck, views and taxonomy even now in D6 era. Best!

ScreenCast Availability
Leo;
Unfortunately it seems that your screencast is no longer available. Do you have a different link or another copy. I'd love to go over the tutorial again on how to setup the library database in Drupal. Thx.

Re: ScreenCast Availability
Hi Ludwig,
Darn! It must be somewhere. It looks like the server I originally had it on bit the dust.
I'll have a look. I must have a copy somewhere.
