Over a year ago I discovered the beauty of Drupal and the amazing things that could be done with it, and typically without doing any major programming. Modules like CCK, Views and the helpers for these modules make developing dynamic websites a snap. You will most likely need a bit of knowledge in terms of html/css (modifying templates to suite your needs) but in my experience I've had to do only a very moderate amount of actual PHP coding. If anything, I could add some specific behaviour to the page through the use of javascript.

Have you ever wondered where your site ranks on google for a given search?

Try this ruby script out to find out (be nice with it!).
You'll need ruby installed of course. Also do a

gem install hpricot

since this requires the hpricot gem to be installed.

It will search up to 20 pages deep on google (I wouldn't recommended altering this since nobody is going to search more than 20 pages deep for your webpage).

I've noticed a trend on the net to give "unlimited" of some kind of service. Whether its it's bandwidth for internet hosting, space for file storage, email storage, etc, there tends is always a catch. Lets be real, its impossible to have unlimited resources, every computer has its limits.

It may have been over two weeks late but www.sm-hog.com was finally launched yesterday morning. It was quite a learning experience for me and everyone else involved.

Its nice to see a project develop into something more than just a bunch of html that nobody will use or appreciate. Hopefully the site will be used by the members.
