drupal has come along way baby

i've been taking a closer look at drupal with an eye towards using it as a foundation for a variety of facefive services. it has really come a long way since the last time i played around with it. and the fact that it has ldap support makes my life infinitely easier [ fingers crossed since i haven't tried the module yet ]. [ update: dang. it looks like the ldap module only authenticates against and existing ldap server, it doesn't actually provision new users to the resource. i guess i don't get our of doing no work :-) ] it takes a little bit of energy to get into the drupal lingo, but it certainly is looking like it's worth the effort.

i wish there was a module to ease integration with making payments via something like trustcommerce.

“"it is hard to be brave," said piglet, sniffing slightly, "when you're only a Very Small Animal." rabbit, who had begun to write very busily, looked up and said: "it is because you are a very small animal that you will be Useful in the adventure before us."”

[ about ]

this site chronicles the continuing adventures of my son, odin, who was unexpectedly born on the fourth of july at 25 weeks gestation, weighing 1 pound 7 ounces.

he's quite a fighter and you can always send him a postcard to the most current address listed here if you're inspired by his adventures. see the postcard project/google maps mashup to see a map of the postcards.

if you're new, you can browse the archives to catch up. and don't forget to watch a few movies that i made while we were in the neonatal intensive care unit. or if you want the abridged version and you can find a copy, you can read about his adventures in the november 2005 issue of parents magazine.
