I am not a blogger

I am not a blogger. I am not a tweeter. I don't like writing, mostly because I have trouble bringing myself to get started, have too much else on my mind, or just end up demotivating myself because I read back what I just put down and it sounds ridiculous.

I am not a "business person". I am not a marketer. I am driven enough to work for myself, and (try to) start my own businesses, but the reality is, when it comes to essential business operations outside of tech, I don't know what the fuck I am doing.

Reset Ubuntu Panels (Toolbars) without even logging out

Freakin Sweet. I experiment with my ubuntu toolbars a lot so I'm always googling for a way to reset them properly.

gconftool-2 --shutdown && rm -rf ~/.gconf/apps/panel && pkill gnome-panel

Thanks, Dykam @ http://superuser.com/questions/7225/how-do-i-restore-a-panel-in-ubuntu

Nook & Cranny Records 2.0

NookAndCrannyRecords.com was relaunched built upon the Drupal framework.

The site features the ability for users to post photos and videos of their favorite artists. The Audio.module handles all of the music, and a customized view plus some JQuery magic created the jukebox functionality.

The artists and albums were imported into nodes, images and all, with a custom PHP script.

The site is still a work in progress. Many social networking features have not been added yet.

Recovery.gov launches, built on Drupal

LocalArt.Biz

LocalArt.Biz is a place for artists to post their artwork, and let other's purchase from them.

It organizes by the Artist's location.

This project was built with the goal of using only contributed modules to flesh out as much as possible as quickly as I could.

The site features:
- Panels with Views and pretty Ajax pagers
- Views Slideshow for the header
- Twitter.module for artists twitter feeds and to allow artists to announce new artwork via twitter.
- Facebook_Auth.module to allow users to signup via facebook.

LocalArt.biz demonstrate's the power of Drupal contrib

The result was www.LocalArt.biz.
