Twitter module for Drupal plus Facebook plus Adium equals end of schizophrenia

One status for all your online identities: the end of schizophrenia! Update your status on your Drupal site, and keep your wider wired and wireless world informed.

First, the Twitter module for Drupal by walkah is very simple and a little non-intuitive as to where to do settings, so we'll start with some Twitter module documentation that should be cleaned up and put on Drupal.org (pending the commit of a patch Agaric used and probably other enhancements of the module).

Moving a MySQL Database by Command Line Interface

mysqldump -u root -p internetbar_live > internetbar_backup.sql

(should gzip here)

This command compresses the file database.sql and replaces it -- deletes it -- with the compressed .gz file database.sql.gz

gzip database.sql
