Michael Barton tells you how to get a Digg-like site

I like the concept of Digg. It helps free up the information so more people can find it. If you don’t know what Digg is, please go and check out Digg right now. Please comeback or you’ll miss out on what I have to say.

In this article I’m going to tell you how you’re going to create your Digg-like site, I’m going to give you some examples of Digg sites that are out there, and then I’m going to give you my contact information in case you want to get started and need my help.

Let’s get started because there is a lot of competition out there and we don’t want to miss out on our opportunity now do we?

40 Free Must-Have-Open Source Resources

I’m a huge fan of Open Source. If you don’t believe me, check out my meetup group, Richmond’s Open Source Meetup Group.

This little article lists 40 of the Free Open Source Resources out there to help you save some money. With a tough economy like the one we’re facing today, it’s good to be able to save any penny you can. By the way, if you scroll down far enough, you’ll see that there’s a free eBook in there about Linux.

I’ve FINALLY open sourced my first Drupal module. I’ve written several Drupal modules for clients in the past; however, this is the first one I’ve open sourced and given to the community. I’m very, very excited about this module.

For those of you that don’t know, I’ve been an open source developer for years. Now, I’m finally able to give back!

I’m proud to announce the arrival of Status Messages Alter to the Drupal community. This module adds hook_message_alter to Drupal 6, enabling developers to change the status messages before they are delivered to the user. This has been something I’ve been wanting for a while now, and I’m sure others have been wanting this too!

Now it’s finally here. I hope you all enjoy the module as much as I already have.
