Think about it.

Lullabot has another round of workshops coming up this summer. We're going to be in three cities teaching a different topic in each. These will also all be two-day weekend workshops so folks that have difficulty getting away from work during the week can attend.

Drupal API and Module Building - July 21st and 22nd - Chicago, IL

Angie Byron, Jeff Eaton, and Mr. X lead this two-day workshop aimed at developers who want to go beyond the functionality provided by existing modules, understand what's happening "under the hood" in Drupal, and learn how to harness the power of Drupal's web application framework.

Drupal Theming – August 4th and 5th - New York, NY

While Drupal is known for its power and extensibility, it is not often known for producing beautiful sites. Drupal's architecture allows extensive control over how pages are presented, yet this is still a bit of a dark art to many Drupal professionals. We will look at the process of transferring our project from stark-but-functional, into "Wow, that's Drupal!?"

Drupal Intensive – August 18th and 19th - Los Angeles, CA

The newly released Neighborhood CCK module will take the place of Video CCK, replacing that module and expanding it with Video Neighborhood, Image Neighborhood, and the upcoming Audio Neighborhood.

If you don't already know about Video CCK, this module allows an editor to paste a URL or embed code from a third party video provider, such as YouTube or Revver, into a node field, and the module will parse the code, automatically extract the provider and video code, and display the video as configured. It is fully integrated into CCK and Views, to give administrators the ease and power they want in determining how it's displayed. It supports nearly a dozen providers, with more to come, and offers resizable thumbnails and autoplay (as available from the providers).

So now I've extracted the engine from that to drive two more modules. If you're already using Video CCK, I've tried to make the migration path as painless as possible. You'll need to remove the video_cck directory, install the new Neighborhood CCK (ncck) folder, activate the new module at admin/build/modules, and run update.php. All existing fields, settings, and content created by Video CCK will be preserved.

Hello all,

Makefunds.com has just rolled out version 2.1 which includes revenue sharing via the awesome Adsense module, and more user centric post displays. If you would like to get involved in the Makefunds.com business please do.

At Makefunds you make 70% of all ad revenue for your posts (we wanted to make it 100% however we can't since we give 30% to referrers*). All content posts generate revenue except for comments and reviews since they are just attached to another node.

We really want to make Makefunds a place where people can find the resources that they need to succeed in ecommerce but we need your help.

If you have some ecommerce software that you would like to distribute you can do so for free at Makefunds (the software will most likely generate the most ad revenue for you so thats a big one)

If you specialize in ecommerce related things such as programming, theming, sourcing, marketing, etc..., post a contractor info page at Makefunds. It's free to do, it can drum up leads, and if you participate in the revenue sharing program, you can even make money with ad revenue.

If you need some work done on your ecommerce project, post a contract offer. Its free, it can help you get competitive bids, and it too can make money for you via the revenue sharing program.
