Hi all: We had working hard to get in features on the website that would make access easy and interaction fun.
Quicklinks A simple url to help you access the item of choice. Events Calendar http://events.twincling.org/ Photo Gallery http://photos.twincling.org/ Community Wiki http://wiki.twincling.org/ RSS Feeds Aggregation http://planet.twincling.org/ Drupal Installation A single Drupal 6.1 (PHP, MySQL) installation powers the website http://www.twincling.org/ and all related services. The system upgrades and database migration and enhancement has been completed. Authentication Extensible authentication with OpenID. If you have an OpenID, then you can automatically login to twincling.org account and participate in discussions. Offcourse, you can still create an account on twincling.org if you want to. (thanks to Satish) Your Profile As a authenticated user, you can add your photos (96x108 pixels in JPG, PNG or GIF format) to your profile. This helps people know you and have better interactions (thanks to Uma). Editor integrated FCKEditor has been integrated in the Drupal installation. This makes adding content, photos, links a breeze. It's a cross platform editor and you don't have to worry about typing in HTML code. (thanks to Uma). Upcoming Event Until recently, we had a Twitter badget (Flash) placed on top left of the page. The badge had a flash dependency. We've replaced that with AJAX based component (thanks to Vivek). Wiki Wiki has been integrated into the core website to simplify access, authentication, content unification. All content (pages, books, polls) is 'editable' and 'commentable' by a authenticated user. Feel free to create or build on any topic. (thanks to Namita) About Us The 'About Us' section has been repurposed to highlight the key activities of the Society, Point of View, the Team, FAQs and present statutory details for a 'not-for-profit' organization. Planet TWINCLING This is your single service/page to keep updated about the technical developments and thought leadership in the Open Source space. You can also select your category of interest. If you use a blog reader, you can even pull the syndicated blog. (thanks to Alolita) RSS Feeds Here are the URLs you can use in your blog reader. http://www.twincling.org/rss.xml http://www.twincling.org/aggregator/rss Current list of sources aggregrated http://www.twincling.org/aggregator/sources Tags A vocabulary of Open Source related tags is being developed. If you would like to contribute to that, please leave a comment. Feel free to post in your comments and suggestions on how we can even do better. thanks Saifi.
