Hello fellow drupalizers!
So, ive came up with this great idea for a community, with all these ideas on how to make it really fun and addictive place to hang out! And ive been suggested by a highly skilled webcreator (mostly joomla and html/php coding etc). He have never tried drupal but he heard alot about it and got some guys on the office that are skilled with it, and i belive ive come to the right software to do this.
Im pretty average computer using guy, currently studying business systems, ERPS etc etc. After going over about 60 episodes off tutorial on youtube and reading/googling ALOT on creating social networking sites using drupal 7, modules, etc, ive figured this is clearly doable with all my ideas, BUT it seems like a ton of work! Using around 8-10 hours/day on learning drupal i hoped i could finish a pretty basic version of my site after 2 months, but know im not sure.
It would be much appreciated if you guys had some tips on how to learn fast, or where to start rly. Should i just try to create a very small community at first? Publish it and play around with it, or should i buy some of these training videos like ostraining.com?
If i had the money i would pay ppl to do this cause thats how much i belive in this idea, but i dont... And it would also be fun to learn this program cause it seems like an REALLY nice software!
