Attend My Session! Come to DrupalCon Chicago!

I'm happy to announce that I'll be presenting the session, Developing Apps for iPhone/iPad/Android using drupal as base system  at DrupalCon Chicago!

A sequel to DrupalCon SFO's and DrupalCon CPH's "Developing Apps for iPhone/iPad/Android using drupal as Base System" session (more advanced and better!!)

With launch of iPad and NexusOne - iPhone/Android application market can't be ignored. Both these technologies has great potential to use our existing web based tools such as drupal. You can totally use drupal to manage/update your iPhone/Android native application.

Some iPhone/drupal stuff I wrote in past at: http://civicactions.com/blog/sumit

This session is about building native iPhone/iPad/Android applications using opensource web based technologies (http://www.appcelerator.com) with drupal as base system to manage: content, users, views, permissions etc.

Drupal is the industry-leading open source content management platform used to power millions of websites. It’s also a robust community of Web developers, designers, businesspeople, and everyday citizens around the world.
