Antecedentes

Hace 10 años que salí del colegio y estoy agradecido con mis profesores de primaria, que me enseñaron a leer, escribir y las 4 operaciones matemáticas básicas. Y también agradezco a algunos de mis profesores de secundaria, que me enseñaron a veces historia del Perú, y trataron de enseñarme álgebra.

My d.o profile says that I'm a 2.5 years old drupaler, and I love it. From my personal vision, God blessed me a lot since I'm working with Drupal. Not only in my job, also had the wonderful opportunity to meet so nice people, and visit 3 new countries in just one year!

What about PHP? well..., we have a trading agreement :D

Do you want to keep your site multi-language friendly? Please follow this:

1. Use t('text') instead of 'text'
2. Enable Multilingual in your content types
3. If your site uses English, do it with pure English first, then translate
4. Avoid the use of HTML into strings as much as possible
5. In CCK fields, use PHP code for Allowed values list, i.e.: return array(1=>t('text'), ...)
6 - 10. Read the manual http://drupal.org/handbooks

Blessings.

HOWTO recordmydesktop+jack in Ubuntu Karmic

fernando@develcuy.com (Fernando P. García) - HOWTO ...

If you are an screencaster, for sure you know that there are not much options to grab your desktop + microphone at the same time. Perhaps you have tried some java programs, or simply switched back to windows and used a virtual machine. Too complicated!

Hopefully, there is still an opportunity: recordmydesktop+jack. I will not describe how to install jack here, sorry, google is your friend :)
But once you have jack up & running, do the following:

Download sources
$ apt-get source recordmydesktop

Install development dependencies
$ sudo apt-get build-dep

Annoyed because you have to increase text size in "that" site?, what about sites where webmasters asume all screens are 800x600 still?

Don't suffer anymore and make the Internet look your way!

Use Stylish Firefox plug-in.

Blessings!

Drupal 6, now or never

I have released my first Drupal 6 module: Node Menu 3 months ago, and the second yesterday: Dokeos. What does it means for me? well... I'm feeling more confident with "D6" (Drupal 6.x), specially since the launch of OpenAtrium.

So, if you still develop for Drupal 5, I hope you have a very good reason! but you are missing A LOT from the new Drupal 6 exclusive modules :)
