Presenter: Hector Iribarne
Topic: DrupalCon Chicago 2011

Hector presented his detailed notes in slide format with the events he attended and related links. Following are highlights of Hector’s presentation with some additional definitions of terms (also see Hector's pdf file attached to this post):

Mollom
• Is an "intelligent" content moderation web service. By monitoring content activity on all sites in the Mollom network, Mollom is in a unique position to determine if a post is potentially spam; not only based on the posted content, but also on the past activity and reputation of the poster. In short, Mollom handles incoming posts intelligently, in much the same way a human moderator decides what posts are acceptable.
• Is better than “Captcha”

Archive.org
• Has most of the DrupalCon topics discussed, just search by “DrupalCon”
• Can also download the iPhone or Android app to view the notes
