Groups.Drupal "how-to"

Hi all,

I was just curious if anyone knew of a tutorial (video or otherwise) that described what all went into the creation of the Groups.Drupal site. Obvioulsy it utilizes all the social networking pieces that so many sites are after (my own inclulded).

Has anything been put together to document how this site was actually created? Drupal version, modules, etc. I'm primarily interested in Organic Groups, and all the related social aspects (flagging friends, etc.).

Thanks!
Steve

Looking for a module that deletes orphan free tags.

Is there a module that goes about cleaning up "orphan" free tags, i.e. free tags that are not associated with any nodes?

In general, can you share a tip to searching for modules?

Thanks.

Event type: 
Online meeting (eg. IRC meeting)

In keeping with my "Getting Back in the Game" post, I'm ready to pick a date for the next lesson. Given the good experience, we'll try using DimDim for screen sharing to test that out.

This Sunday's lesson is going to be a general "Dive into Drupal" for those who already understand the basics of PHP, MySQL, HTML and CSS, but need to wrap their heads around this crazy little thing called Drupal. My goal will be to cover these four major topics:

  • Drupal Concepts: Hooks, Nodes, Core APIs
  • NodeAPI: The Life of a Node
  • Form Alter: Tweaking UI and Behavior
