note

I recently did some search engine optimization consulting for a local business, Indresano Landscaping, who was not using Drupal or any other Agaric services, and it was a nice opportunity to review the basics of SEO -- and to realize just how much Drupal does for us.

Duck programming is manageable. It starts with recognizing that while it may be designed to be carried out by people who are not professional coders, it is still programming, and must be managed with the same processes you use to manage code:

after wasting untold hours with Deploy and Services modules, i switched to using views with xml export and Mitchell's xpath parser module on the intake side. Thing is magic, just wish he hadn't disappeared again and had done it in 1/10th the time it took me

Bloody magic, i imagine a lot from feeds, but it does taxonomy terms and images perfectly, and links in the url and title pieces, once it is all exported as plain text in xml (i was more comfortable with creating the dedicated feed than doing the HTML parsing)

On the source site, download the Views Datasource project

Despite being into Drupal and believing in the software and the community, one tends to know the faults of one's own software better than the faults of other software. So the image of WordPress is something that just works, and is able to do seamless upgrades version after version, etc.

But, obviously, it's not right for everything, and its fans can realize that, too.

Drupal does not belong to the Drupal Association. It does not belong to Node One, Phase Two, Chapter Three, Four Kitchens, Palantir, Acquia, or even Agaric. It does not belong to Dries— except the name. It belongs to you, and every other person who steps up to claim it, equally.

What does it mean to take ownership?
