Guideline for heartbeat activity
Wednesday, January 13th, 2010
Heartbeat is an API that allows logging activity messages to the database. These logged messages are listed up to form a heartbeat stream. There are three built-in streams but developers can register their own. How these messages are getting logged, is fully up to you. Programmers can call the api function for events based on custom criteria. Non-developers and themers can enable the submodule heartbeat_rules so they can trigger events for heartbeat to log the activity. The powerfull module it depends on is rules.

Hyves for drupal
Friday, August 21st, 2009
I intend to write a module to integrate Hyves within drupal sites. Hyves is a facebook alike community website that offers an nice api, much like facebook does. Hyves is used by users in the Netherlands. The module would offer lean methods to call the Hyves API in a more standard way. There would be a settings page for developers and/or sitemasters to select the features they want.
This post is nearly to check if there would be people interested in a module like this. Please let me know and i will refactor a custom project to a drupal module.

Expose database fields to views in a custom drupal module
Wednesday, October 22nd, 2008
Developers who wrote a custom node module in drupal will know that you always have to make a couple of choices at the start of a project. Will I write a custom node module or use CCK to generate a content module. Or when using views, you might ask yourself it is better to write your own view. Or could it be wiser to use it all and take the best of all things into your project. Once I have such questions, I hear a little voice in my head “Time to test and compare”.
