community

Hi,

I'm creating a site to help people learn how to be a Weber, that is, someone who gets paid to do Web work.

The site's design is informed by learning research, particularly constructivism and phenomenography. That's where the site's value proposition comes from: lessons designed to help humans learn effectively and efficiently.

I wrote a short document on the design, showing how I derived the design by joining learner goals and learning theory. If anyone's interested, I'd like to get some feedback on the ideas. The site is still very much a work-in-progress.

I wanted to let the group know that today Street Roots did their hard launch of our community project, the Rose City Resource site. Since we went live in March, Israel (SR director) and I have been tweaking, configuring, and adding (with the continued support of the dev team, thank you).

You can pick up a copy of today's Street Roots to find an article on page 3. Israel is holding a stack of papers for us so if you're not able to pick one up, let me know and I'll send one to you if you want. :)

You can also see the article here:

Good article by jhedstrom in today's NTEN (Nonprofit Technology Network) newsletter: Building Community with Open Source with PDX Drupal UG as an example. Nice.

Hi, I'm setting up a community driven site, where many of the events are managed by the community members, including registration. So, just to simplify the idea, every time a user registers an account in the site, a poll is created and members vote to approve or decline the application. Currently application form is no more than a set of cck fields in a specific content type. This node is created in the "applications forum", so members can cast their votes.

Now, the question is, should this kind of functionality require a single module or not?

I've found several approaches here..

Recently, I had to create a website, for a Penn State course, to search Tv shows. I was free to select any platform to develop the site on and I've picked Symfony php framework. However, couple weeks into the project I realized that Drupal could've saved me so much time and would've been much more reliable. If only someone mentioned Drupal to me at the right moment...

Tjenamoss! Har hållt på med Drupal i några timmar nu och börjar hitta runt bland alla inställningar! :D Har löst alla problem som varit server-side och nu verkar sidan smida på som den ska efter att man installerat :P

Nu är det såhära, jag vill skapa ett community!

// - Skippa bakgrundsinfo - //

Vi börjar med lite bakgrundsinfo:

Mitt (och brorsans) första lilla community skapade vi själva i ASP (jag idéerna, han kodandet), mkt bra lösning då vi fick allt som vi ville ha då!

Please look at my new site http://www.ohmybaby.in
It is a Social Networking site and dedicated to Indian Mothers.
Main module is OG

thanks,
Gopi

A great way to build Drupal's presence in your region is to start a Google Map of everyone in your country using Drupal.

Overview: This proposal is about the development of a new system that enable users to manage opinions in an advanced way. It should become the evolution of bulletin boards (forums) and it will be developed to replace them.

An dem Drupalcamp in Januar 2009 in Köln habe ich einen Workshop über der Aufbau einer Community Webseite mit Drupal gehalten. Als Resultat der Workshop ist eine Community Webseite zum ausprobieren entstanden. Diese ist jetzt auf http://dropper.anolim.com veröffentlicht. Jeder der sich für das Thema interessiert ist herzlichst eingeladen online an diesen Workshop weiter mitzumachen und weiter zu gestalten. Da könnt ihr Community Module aktivieren, konfigurieren und ausprobieren.
