Adding an events calendar to a Drupal instance is pretty easy thanks to Kjartan Mannes who authored the Event module and Gerhard Killesreiter who maintains it.

I was asked if I would add a Calendar to the Nonprofit Commons site--dedicated to nonprofits in Second Life--to aid in booking space across the two sims. We often have events, and sometimes they can conflict with one another.

The steps are easy. In this instance, I'm adding the module to a Drupal 5.x install.

Today is World Blog Day 2007. It was originally conceived of by Nir Ofir in 2005. The idea of the meme is that if bloggers world wide recommend one another, the community will become tighter. It is a way of becoming an ambassador of the world.

The rules are simple.

1. Choose five bloggers that you like and recommend them
2. Include the location of the bloggers
3. Tag YOUR post BlogDay2007
4. Let the bloggers who you have tagged, know that you have tagged them.
5. Put the BlogDay 2007 badge on your site

I was recently introduced to Virak's blog by my friend Beth Kanter. Virak lives in Cambodia, and may be the first video blogger there. Beth lives in New England. While not technically a SINGLE blogger, I am closely involved with the non-profit commons on SecondLife and we have a collective blog representing non-profits world wide. I owe my brother kudos. He is one of the reasons I blog, work for a startup, and have become a technology geek. He lives in Ontario and blogs, mostly, about VOIP and related technologies. Finally, I am so very pleased to have become associated with and a colleague of Greg Knaddison. He is partially responsible for helping me find my way to pingVision, a super Drupal house. Where is he located? Right this moment in Spain--but he is MOVING around.
