Please do not embed outside media. Images and videos can be uploaded via the Media Browser. Files should either be attached to the blog post or uploaded to the file libraries.

When you post to your blog it will appear on this index and on your personal blog page. Once you've made a few posts, contact me about having a graphic added on the top of this page.

Things are a changin'

Well, it's certainly gonna be different around here, but the groundworks been laid now so there's no going back. I'm impressed with the power and flexibilty of the Drupal system, it seems that there's a fair few extras that can be dropped in no problem as and when needed.

So far I like:

* The wiki editing. I do enough contributions to the Wikipedia to know wiki better than html
* The user customised themes - Tom just drop the AF logo into the marvin theme and that's me happy.
* The rest of it

What I'd like to see:

* A neat implementation of avatars, positions within AF (i.e. moderator, newbie, member, chief code monkey, etc.) and possibly post count.

I've blogged before and at other, larger sites. I duuno if I'd really keep it up much here, but at least it's free. Unlike iBlog. Sad

Hoo boy, we have a long way to go...

Looks like we have a good deal of stuff to work on in terns of AF 2.0. Hopefully I can integrate the MQ site into Drupal elegantly.
