BabelUp is a social network for social activism. That is, it's a fun community to hang out in with friends and discuss global issues. BabelUp hosts forums, user blogs, image galleries, real-time chatting, groups, calendars, and lots of other features you'd expect to find in a well-designed (hopefully) social network.

We had a good Drupal Camp Shanghai! The heavy rain on Sunday didn't stop the most active local Drupalers to get together and enjoy this event: over 60 people attended over 12 sessions and discussions. In the rooms you could see knowledge virally spreading throughout the attendees as well as connections being made. DCS may be over but don't let the knowledge sharing stop here. This event was put on by people just like everyone actively checking here, thank you for contributing, and don't let events like this stop! YOU are keeping this going on!

Dragi prieteni am creat situl drupal.org.ro. Deocamdată este în versiune BETA, de aceea vă solicit înţelegere şi vă aştept să contribuţi pentru a-l transforma într-o veritabilă Comunitate Drupal România.

Citiţi mesajul de bun venit la http://drupal.org.ro/node/3.

Vă aştept cu drag!

One of the topics being discussed in a side group last night involved the hope for a site that performed ratings of existing modules which could guide Drupalers to getting what they need in a shorter period of time.

I remembered running across the below site a short time ago, which is described as being a community-powered rating and review service dedicated to helping people to find the best Drupal modules for their projects.

John Forsythe made the announcement earlier this year.

I am looking into using Drupal for a new social network aimed at professional and collegiate athletes (NBA, NFL, NCAA, etc.) which will allow them to connect with their fanbase which will also have access to the site membership. The requirements (whick my first platform choice, Elgg, did not adequately meet -- which, in turn, led me to Drupal by recommendation) are to have several different user types related to the industry including fans, teams, universities and career managers (or athlete agents, if you will).
