I am a Drupal developer/themer/designer/you name it! I use Drupal for ALL web projects that I do. It’s amazing and SOOOO EXPANDABLE. You could have an entire flash site in drupal if you really wanted… the possibilities are endless If you ever need drupal help, give me a holla!

Bravo indeed for drupal to stay cool under the pressure!

A bit off the subject, but Jon Hicks did a nice write up comparing Textpattern and Expression Engine a week or so ago:

The new EE is dead sexy. Or it will be once it hatches.

Blurb, Did you know that it is no longer letting us add comments to Dooce. I just tried to enter again and it will not let me leave a comment.

33,000 comments? That’s a stadium full. How fantastic. Dooce is a rock star.

@momross3, I'll put them back in once the server settles down. Probably later tonight or tomorrow.

Jon, Are you planning to put the pictures that Heather had in her contest post back up for those of us that didn’t get to see them before they where removed.

I have to say I’m way impressed with how Drupal is holding your site up under that kinda load. My companies website starts hanging up when we deal with 200 sales simultaneously. We bought a commercial CMS, and found it truly difficult to implement. Kudos to you for administering it, and not letting the site die. I have to wonder what kind of machine(s) you are using to run the site, I assume it’s a co-lo but curious.

On a separate note about the Wii’s:
“2. No mechanically reproduced or computer generated entries permitted. ”
Is it possible to generate an entry without a computer? I’m pretty sure that is supposed to mean you can’t set up a computer script to keep submitting entries, but I find this an ironic rule.
