UPS Tracking

Has any developed or know of a developed module for tracking UPS shipments? I am in the beginning stages of building a Module but if its been done there is no reason to rack my brain too much.

variable_get weirdness

I am having difficulties with variable_get.

If I set variable_get in a module:
variable_set('module_variable_name',$value);

the variable is set, and I can get it with
variable_get('module_variable_name','0');

But, if I change the value in the variables table, and call variable_get, I get the original value, not the updated value.
I have tried deleting the cache, and sessions but I always get the old value.

Doesn't variable set store the value in the variable table?
and doesn't variable_get retrieve that value?

New Module: Comment follow-up notification mails for anonymous AND registered users with EASY unsubscribe


What we all know and love from typical blogging systems like MT or Wordpress just isn't there, so it has to be created!

History

Since I started using and implementing Drupal as a CMS and also on blog sites I wondered why there is no module to implement the profane comment follow up e-mail that I knew from Movable Type and Wordpress.

However, there are a lot of features in modules like "subscription" and "notify" - which both let you basically subscribe to content of ANY kind, which is a very generic feature.

None of the modules, hacks and tipp I ran across however offered everything ready-to-go for anonymous users as well - everyone required the user to be created prior to comment notification, which is a different approach ( "Make it easier to signup and only talk to those that take the extra minute to sign up")

The long waiting userbase

A lot of questions and requirements were posted, to list just a few

http://urlgreyhot.com/personal/weblog/anonymous_commenting_in_drupal_4_5...
no changees or updates since may

http://drupal.org/node/64920
=> answer: "just make signup easier" :-/

http://drupal.org/node/76711
=> answer: "use subscriptions module" - hey and the anons?

Both notify and subscription were created in 2003.

Nobody that was able to create a drupal mod obviously has since understood the
urgent need to drive one-time users that comment back to you site to convert them
to real registered users... this conversion step is one essential one in building a blog comment community.

Features

So today I am implementing "comment_notify" with the features

- to mail anonymous users about comment follow-ups
- to mail registered users about comment follow-ups
- to allow both by the click on ONE url to sign out of a specific post followup
- to allow registered users to preset their follow-up setting in their profile

Adding relations to custom nodes

So I'm using drupal on this sort of price comparison style site I've been making.
I'm a relatively experienced PHP developer and chose drupal over using CakePHP, because I didn't want to have to fiddle with the small shit.
I'm enjoying drupal so far, it's only been about 8 hours but I've got alot going.
What I'm struggling with now is the extensibility of it, drupal gives you alot, but also kind of obscures obvious extensibility.
