##What's Been Happening Landon and Jim had a phone call discussing how to build basic tools on top of the organization data before jumping into the events.

##What Happened

  • A Drupal 8 install is setup - Jim
  • Jim and Landon discussed adding data validation of the organization info as a next step and a simple product that leverages the API to remind people to update organization data.
  • John Johnson (@randomjohn) joined the team
  • We added an RSS feed of organization data to allow tools like IFTTT, Zapier, and MailChimp RSS to Email to pull data.
  • We created, tweaked, and tested a MailChimp RSS to Email campaign to notify people via email when a new tech organization is added.
  • Added Landon and John with access to Drupal

##Ideas for simple uses of what we have

  • IFTTT to validate website URLs and email us when something changes/breaks
  • Email organizers each quarter to verify they are still the proper contact
  • Auto post new organizations to Twitter and Slack accounts
