This little website has been online since 1998 (back in the embarrassing days of terrible bedroom derived HTML layouts) and running Drupal since Spring 2007. Over the course of the last four years of drupalishness, the online world has been attacked by spammers – the web equivalents of junk mailers. I was just upgrading a …
After nearly three years of intense community collaboration by nearly a thousand contributors, Drupal 7.0 is today officially released and ready for download! Drupal is dead, Long Live Drupal. This latest incarnation of the popular open source Web content management system, is now generally available and it’s free! Oh, how I love that word. …
So, as I’m here in Roanoke Airport for an extra hour (curse this rainy valley and US Airways little puddle jumper airplanes) I might as well make use of the free Wifi and blog something 🙂 Hmmm… how about something on Drupal? Ten Essential Modules for every Drupal website I have a big list of …
This website has been running on the Drupal CMS since upgrading from Joomla to Drupal 5 back in 2007. I’ve closely followed each new Drupal release and experienced the teething pains as modules have evolved to the exciting state they are in the moment. Drupal Rocks and I’m eagerly awaiting the new Drupal 7 release (as …

So, lets start on the right foot. I cannot spell. Even though I spend my life reading books, reading technical documentation, writing programs, typing web content and am surrounded by the written (and digital) word for 20 hours a day I will admit to being a terrible speller.
It’s the common words that get me, and of course, my own particular brand of over; punctuating every-thing!!!! 😉
Anyway, I digress.
I dont have a problem with the myriad of miss-spelt words on line, or the new text-speak that is becoming so common in blogs and online articles by those of us who are still the sunny side of 30. alrite m8? The trouble is using search engines to find information when it is clearly written in a different language. No, not French or German, not even British or American English, but quite simply English and badly-spelt-English.
...So, I’ve decided its time for me to step up to the plate (to use a strange Americanism) and get ready to take my collection of IBM i Software Developer Utilities to the next level… *Deep Breath* PROJEX4I is Ready… nearly 😉 I’m at the final part of a major product re-write for PROJEX4I and …
So, we all know that downloading big, fat files from the internet can be a big, fat pain in the big, fat arse. Luckily a free tool called “Free Download Manager” takes that pain away. Even if you enjoy a fast internet connection, being disconnected near the end of a big download can make you …
WYSIWYG means “what-you-see-is-what-you-get”
Thats an internet fact.
Basically this means that when you type into a comment box on a website you want to be able to click bold italic and underline and actually see the words changing on the screen – as opposed to entering all the geeky <strong> <italic> and <ul> codes.
...So, It’s thursday lunchtime and I’ve just wasted an hour of my life sifting through the thousands of website comments and deleting the spam. 99.9% of it was adverts for (yes, you’ve guessed it) various small blue pills and lotions promising monstrous erections and the ability to proudly say “Hung like BULL“
What is it with these horrid companies generating internet spam and splashing it around the website? Ooooh… it gets my blood pressure raising – AND I DIDNT EVEN NEED A PILL TO DO IT!!!
...Those KEYWORD CLOUDS that you see on some websites are cool aren’t they!?! They’re also very simple to use in Drupal… but as I discovered… not so simple to setup. Or at least to find out how to setup anyway. So, for my failing memory and for anyone else out there that this may assist …
