Drupal coming close to LiveJournal feature set

With the release of the MultiDomain module, this brings Drupal a tiny step closer to doing what the LiveJournal codebase can do.

In the linked post, the author mentions how he would like to build a UserDomain module. It would allow each user to have their own subdomain.

There's some minimal integration for OpenID in Drupal 4.7, now if only it could get ported to 5.0.

So what else does LiveJournal have that Drupal doesn't have...yet? I'll update the list more as I think about it, but here's what I have so far.

  • Multiple Avatar's per user
  • User Domains (hopefully coming soon)
  • Clean Groups integration (Organic Groups is almost there, but I still find it lacking)

Finally Updating

So for those of you on Facebook, you've noticed an abundance of notes by me popup all of a sudden. That's because I'm unleashing my blog out upon the world. It's just a place to let my write things out, and test other stuff. I won't be offended if you never read it again.

I finally had time to update my site. I wanted to use the newest version of Drupal because of all the new features it has, like the theme with a color chooser on it. Don't you like the Christmas colors?

It's nice being out of school for a little while. I have a little time to think before something is due in two seconds.

I'm going to slowly be cleaning up my site as old modules get ported to work with the new version of drupal. I'll probably try to do some porting myself if I can get the hang of their API.

If you don't understand what that means, don't worry... hardly anyone else did, either. Just know that I'm going to have my head stuck in the computer a little bit longer.

Maybe over the next few days, I'll clean up that post about what's been going on lately in my life.
