Earl Miles has announced the first beta of Panels Everywhere. I'll let Earl tell you about it ., but it lets you use panels for all of the blocks and other design elements of your web site.
Earl Miles: Panels 3.0 / CTools 1.0 release imminent! Translators wanted! -
This is a call to translators. If you're interested in translating Panels and or CTools, I am going to do a full release by the middle of next week. Any translation work you want to go out with this release should be checked into CVS by then!
This is a new module, and it is mondo cool, letting you have vastly more control over the rendering of CCK nodes on your web site. Let's have the module developers show it off for you!
Mollom has now blocked 100 million spam posts from web sites. We use it on almost all of the sites we build, and it's amazing how much garbage it gets rid of - not all of it, but enough that moderating spam comments, etc. is not a full-time job. Highly recommended.
Mollom
, a spam prevention tool that competes with Automattic’s Akismet,
has blocked a stunning 100,000,000 spam messages from appearing on
websites, social networks and blogs since the product was introduced
about 14 months ago.
Given that the product has only been out of beta since September
2008, that gives you an idea of just how much junk travels the digital
highways. According to Mollom co-founder Dries Buytaert (also the creator of Drupal,
one of the most used open source content management systems in the
world), the solution is now used by about 10,000 websites across the
globe, and the rate at which it is blocking spam messages from
appearing on the Web is rapidly increasing. In a blog post,
Buytaert says Mollom reached the 25 million blocked spam messages
milestone five months ago, and got to the point where it filtered out
50 million of them only two months ago.
