Create a Block of Social Media Icons using CCK, Views and Nodequeue
I recently decided that I wanted to have a block displayed in a sidebar on my site containing icons and links to my social media profiles - Twitter, Facebook etc. I tried the Follow module, but it lacked the option to add extra networks such my Drupal.org account, and my RSS feed.
3 Golden Rules to Keeping Your Data - Backup... Backup... Backup!
Last night, I decided to update my live Drupal 6 multi-site setup. My development version is continually running the latest version of the Drupal core code and modules, but my live setup was slightly outdated. I'd also re-organised my 'sites' structure slightly on my development setup, and found several modules on the live server that I wasn't using. So, I decided to remove everything from the live server and replace it with the shiny up-to-date version from my development setup.

Personal Site Launched!
Yes, there is still a LOT of work to do theming this site (it's currently just a slightly-modified Zen subtheme), but the basic development work is more-or-less done, and I think that I've gone long enough without a personal website!
As I continue to develop and build this website, I'll be adding Blog posts and tutorials of the technologies and techniques I've used, as well as reviews of contributed modules and other things that I've used.
