The Way We Work: Twitter del.icio.us Hack
Yesterday while waiting at the Cancun airport with Aaron, Henry, Mirasol, Nedjo, Owen and Justine, a few of us got to talking about FriendFeed, Twitter and del.icio.us.
Aaron and I are avid del.icio.us users, tagging all sorts of interesting sites. And we follow numerous lists and feeds thus pulling together some great information and redistributing it through the company.

(This is quite out of date now, but better late than never.)
Here are the videos from my talk on Scalable Theming: Theming for 100s of node types, CCK fields, and views:

Google's Mapping User Experience; Where have you been?
I've been away from home for 16 days. CivicActions' Full-team and Engineering Offsite Advances in Playa Del Carmen, México, started last Tuesday 8 July and finished last Monday 14 July. I arrived in Cancún 6 days early and did some backpacking around the South-East of México, El Petén Northern Guatemala, and Northern Belize.

The Importance of Strategies, Operating Plans & Success Metrics for NGOs
I just received my first copy of the quarterly Stanford Social Innovation Review, flipped through it and read an amazing case study called "Taking Stock of Venture Philanthropy". It was such a great article that I instantly thought that I should get a subscription for all of our clients.

vi, Drupal Search, and Playa Del Carmen Retreat
LIVE FROM THE ENGINEERING PLAYA DEL CARMEN RETREAT...
I first used vi in 1984 while writing an Operating System for one of my classes. I probably really learned vi while playing nethack during the summer of 1984. I've used vi in almost every job I've had since then. Even when I was on windows, I used mks toolkit or cygwin. That's a 24 years of vi use. I know that we all love our editor. And I have no desire to get into an editor flame war. The point is that I that I've been using vi for a long time, and it's very comfortable for me.
"Breadcrumb" Definition
Website Redesign Glossary - Entry 5
Breadcrumb: An element on a web page (usually directly below the page title) showing the click path a user traveled to arrive at the current page. For example: Home > About Us > Our Staff Usually the terms are active links, which enable the user to retrace their click path (or skip back several clicks). Breadcrumbs, especially in deep sites with multiple levels of navigation, improve usability because they help users understand where they are now as well as the overall structure of the site, and navigate back to the pages they've visited.
The term "breadcrumb" comes from the trail Hansel and Gretel left to try to find their way back home.
Support the Warrior, Not The War.
I just returned from visiting my sister in North Carolina. She's an 18 year veteran of the Marines, worked her way through the enlisted ranks and is now an officer. Coming from a family long in distinguished military service, not to mention the ongoing challenges of being a female Marine, I'm very proud of her.
Firefox Tip: Changing Default Browser URL Bar Behavior On Click
A few months ago when I started using FF3 beta I was being driven mad by the default behavior of the browser when you clicked on the url in the address bar, a single click would highlight the entire url.
Typically I click on the url with the intention of appending the url with something like "admin/build/views" and the entire url would get wiped out.
Well, Owen heard my plight and taught me out to change this behavior:
DrupalCamp Seattle Wrap Up
Wow, what a great 2 days! We had over 80 people show up over 2 days for some great sessions at DrupalCampSeattle.
I think that the highlight, had to be Greg Dunlap's Deploy Module Presentation, again! And of course some great hallway conversation and little show and tells.
A big shout out to all the sponsors, and everyone who pitched in to help.
