It’s a holiday weekend, Philadelphia.
Great for barbecue, fireworks and your backyard pool, but bad for your neighborhood technology event calendar. Nearly every event this week is jam-packed on Tuesday and Wednesday so picking your agenda this week will be tough, but we’re here for you, dear reader.
On Monday, brushup on your Drupal modules and themes at the Zivtech’s Drupal meetup (can you tell we’re WordPress guys at heart?). On Wednesday, you have your pick between Social Media Day and Technically Philly’s very own meetup with Silver Marketing Group at Octo.
Monday, June 28th: The good folks at Zivtech know Drupal better than you know your own mother. Gather at their Strawberry Street offices to chat about the open source CMS which seems to be taking the world by storm of late. 6:00 p.m. Old City. RSVP [view more events]
Wednesday, June 30th: We always enjoy when our friends at Mashable come to town. Here, the 67th Ward-based superblog is sponsoring a slew of social media days around the globe. As of now Philly has the seventh largest social media day in the world, so head on over to Field House and join in on the fun, complete with Twitter quizzo. 7:00 p.m. Center City West. RSVP.

Wednesday, June 30th: The best part of working on Technically Philly is the conversations with our readers. We love hearing what you guys like, what you don’t and what you think we should be improving on. Come grab a beer with us and keep us honest at Octo before packing up the car and driving to the Jersey Shore for the weekend. Insert Snooki joke here. 6:00 p.m. Columbus Blvd. RSVP.
