Acquia at DIWD, Dude
If you didn't get a chance to attend DIWD (Do it with Drupal) - apparently pronounced "Dude" - you definitely missed out. Bryan, Linea, Chuck, Robert, Gábor and I all boarded planes on Tuesday to head down to New Orleans for the three-day event. None were disappointed.

S-Files: Customizing a theme with a sub-theme
Posted on Tuesday, December 9, 2008 by Joshua Brauer RSS
This is the first in a two-part post about creating a sub-theme and using the sub-theme to customize the display of a views block on an Acquia Drupal site. The first installment will include creating the sub-theme and adding some CSS. In part two we'll get into updating the theming for a views block.

Using meet-up for San Francisco local group meeting blows up attendance
Greg Beuthin, from AF83 has been running San Francisco Drupal local group meetings for the last year.

Redesigning the Acquia Home page
Posted on Thursday, December 4, 2008 by Jeff Noyes RSS
In an attempt to respond to you - our most valued customer - we're revising our home page. In our current state, we've heard you say through our usability sessions "the page has too much text," and we've seen you have trouble finding important links like "Download Acquia Drupal." In addition, we think we can do better at making our value proposition more clear.
Our home page is so important to us. Through it, you can download Drupal bundled with several highly rated/used modules. We've tried to help eliminate the burden for new users to figure out which modules to start with. The home... More
