Points On The Line

I've been trying to find/create an image gallery for Drupal. I'm still in the process of researching the my options, and am yet to complete my comparison of all the available options. When I am done, I'll make a post that details my findings. Today however I thought I'd just share a small tip that I took a really long time to discover.

This is going to be a short post, because there are not a lot of things that I did today. Most of my work revolved around adding the finishing touches to the newsflash block that I had created on day one. I detailed exactly what I did, and how I did it in an article that I posted on the website earlier today. That article is located here.

Today was my second day at work. Now I'm inclined to think that the day was rather productive, but I cannot be too sure. I mean the only benchmark I have to compare it with was yesterday. I don't even know how much work the other people working on this project got finished today.

Today I started my internship at SPACE. For those of you who don't know, SPACE is an organization in Kerala that works to promote the use of Free and Open Source Software (FOSS/FLOSS) in a plethora of fields. I first heard of SPACE when I attended the Free Software Free Society conference in Trivandrum in December 2008. During the conference I learnt that SPACE is developing websites for local Panchayats (local administrative bodies that are the most basic level of governance in India) using the Drupal CMS. Since I was slightly familiar with Drupal (its what I used to develop this website) I decided that I'd like to come here and contribute to the project.
