Yet Another Drupal Mentioning

DrupalJam Twitter / Flickr Fountain

Voor de komende DrupalJam, hier alvast een voorproefje dat als backchannel kan dienen gedurende de dag zelf. Embed op je eigen site en spreidt het woord voort.


Willy moved

The End of Willy

I finnaly moved this website from my 15 year old pentium 166 with a load over 20 to some better iron, some decent 3 year old hardware. The new machine had a newer PHP version and my /ancient/ Drupal install was fine with that. However, I was unable to log in. Took me some time to see if this was caching or Cookie related but found it, adding
register_shutdown_function('session_write_close');
to the sessions.inc did the trick

So this website should be more stable now, and faster. I will get a new ADSL line in a couple of week upgrading to 20Mb so should be even faster in some time. With some downtime however, I will get a new IP address as well and need to change my zones when I know what this address will be.

Thank you bas for giving me "havenmeester" (aka tug) 5 years ago. Even at that time dated hardware but served me well. It is just that the fan of the CPU makes an enormous amount of noise now.

shutdown -h now.

We salute you Tug, the oldest webserver on the net :-)

Gratis iPhone in ruil voor een PHP nerd

Gratis iPhone? Sure! Als je een PHP nerd kent die wil werken bij de grootste Open Source software implementator (en de leukste!) in Nederland, geef hem dan aan om te gaan solliciteren bij Dutch Open Projects en krijg gratis een iPhone.

Moet de nerd(in) wel aangenomen worden en door zijn proeftijd komen, maar dat is voor een echte PHP freak die graag met Symfony en/of Drupal werkt geen probleem. Grote klanten, mooie vila, leuke collega's en dito werk.

Kom maar op, de iPhone staat klaar voor je, kom maar op!

Twitter Tip: Twist. Spot twitter trends

At the twist site you can compare different words and see how often per day they are mentioned on twitter, a bit like Google's trends.

It is funny to see that the audience of Twitter is a rather niche one, look for example at Drupal vs Joomla on twist. Drupal is always mentioned a lot more. Now take a look at Drupal vs Joomla "in the real world" on Google Trend; Joomla outranks Drupal at least 5 times.

Conclusion: Twitter peopel are more intelligent. :-)

Swim in style... sort of
