Since last several months, I joined in 2006 as a in a 's project. It was a good experiences to work with someone far away from me to develop something that everyone could use it freely without any restrictions.

Drupal is widely adopted by large number of major sites around the world since it released 4.7.0 early this year. I like the idea to generate things instead of searching and replacing as usual. It's so call constructive approach. Well, Drupal 5.x is currently on the way. It has lots of promising features. By the way, Drupal has a trade-off problem which you might think it is very dangerous to implement your sites using Drupal. In short, Drupal is usually improved by each major version alot so the newer version might be incompatible to the later one. This problem may not be applied to the standard modules where official supports are available. The fact is that most contributions are incompatible to the newest version and it might be still incompatible until mid of next year.

This year is a good year for programmers around the world since there are several specific search engine dedicated to source code, especially open sources. I don't have much chance to try this kind of technology so I will talk about only the top two services: Krugle and .

After went live, it serves the up-to-date web pages aka blog to users around the world. The secret behide this system is Ping service running at Weblogs.com. This concept is taking the web into asynchronous mode since it is not necessary to poll services to track its changes anymore. The services should notify when its content was changed. That's how ping work. Google Blog Search got the updated blog from Weblogs.com for so long since it started. But this limitation has gone today.

I can't remember how long I had been waiting for an account at . It seems like everyone have it installed on their sites but not for me. Anyway, the wait is overed by today since it goes public right now. Thanks to Nick for that to acknowledge all of us, especially me. I have applied howforge.com to be tracked with module for Drupal.

It has been about 2 weeks since I turned on [spam v2][1] in this site to [fight back SPAM][2]. I just want to report the success of this action. After the installation, the module worked intelligently to unpublish lots of comment SPAMs everyday without any training for a few days. By the way, it turned out that SPAMers changed their patterns so the module could not classify them as SPAM correctly. So I manually marked 4 comments
