Drupal Camp Philly


DLC Solutions is proud to announce the sponsorship of DrupalCamp Philly.

DrupalCamp Philly is a one-day meeting for like-minded web developers, managers, and end-users to get together and learn and share Drupal knowledge. The event is appropriate for all level users from beginners to experts.

DLC Solutions has assisted in planning and fund raising to support the free event. Registration details are available at on the DrupalCamp Philly registration page.

We are especially excited about this program as DLC uses Drupal as a key component of our e-learning platform for CME, consumer health education, and pharmaceutical training.

Of particular interest to some clients may be the”Drupal for Not-for-Profits,” beginner session at 3 p.m.

The event is located at the Cira Center, which is just across the street from the Amtrak station. It’s an easy trip from anywhere on the East Coast. We’d love to have you join us!

And The Best Web 2.0 Tech Podcast Award Goes To…


Buzz Out Loud is CNET’s “podcast of indeterminate length,” featuring Molly Wood, Tom Merritt, and Jason Howell having daily discussions about all things tech, including Web 2.0, social networking, hardware, gadgets, and business news. The show is smart and funny and should be considered “must listening” for anyone mildly interested in understanding the current and future directions of the Web.

Announcing PresentME Podcasting

Podcasting is rapidly emerging as an attractive, cost-effective tool for medical education and training. In 2005, 29% of the over 22 million Americans who own an iPOD or MP3 device accessed a podcast from the Web; a number which is likely much higher when you factor in people who only listen to podcasts on their computer. Podcasting (combined from the terms “iPOD” and “broadcasting”) refers to the distribution of audio and video segments which people can subscribe and download to their computer or MP3-enabled devices.

Today, biopharmaceutical corporations, academic medical centers, and patient advocacy organizations alike are gravitating toward this technology to provide “just in time” learning to their audiences. DLC Solutions recently released PresentME Podcasting, our new podcasting platform developed specifically for medical education. In May 2006, we podcast 220 hours of lectures from the Annual Meeting of the American Academy of Physician Assistants. More recently, we worked with The Wellness Community and the Lymphoma Research Foundation to launch their respective podcasting initiatives for cancer patients and their caregivers.

PresentME Podcasting offers four unique benefits:

  1. Power of voice communication
  2. Personalization of learning
  3. Low-cost production and rapid distribution
  4. Time flexibility for learning

The broad adaptation of podcasting is expected to rise dramatically as the cost of MP3 devices decreases and the number of high-quality podcasts continues to expotentially increase.
