I have not written in forever so it is time to make a post. How are you all doing? I am fine, just busy. I recently attended a Drupal programming class and this has helped me understand Drupal so much better. I can’t believe how powerful a CMS can be, or how cool Drupal is with all its great tools.
So now I am dreaming even more about building bigger and better Drupal sites. The only hesitation I have at the moment is in waiting for Drupal 7. It should be out soon, but not soon enough. Even with saying that I have to admit that I will never have the time to devote all the time I would like to my Drupal projects. One can dream though!
Another nice thing that is up and coming is a project that I am now starting that will involve getting volunteers to write content for a site that I think should be pretty darn nice. It will be a local nature site, including species accounts, habitat treatments and lots of pictures. This will be my second such site and I am pretty excited to see what is possible. The first site I did like this was not set up to handle volunteers. It was a static HTML based site so allowing others to participate, and assign them specific roles, was just not possible. This site will be created outside of a web publishing framework, so not exactly Drupal at the moment, although I may port the data into a newly built Drupal site. I will just have to see how it goes. All of these things are just ever expanding experiments anyway. My hope is doing all this is to continue to learn, to build my skills, and to provide as much useful information to others as I can.
