It's been a week since
DrupalCon Boston 2008. I started this post a week ago, but have been fighting a cold all week and am only now having the extra energy outside of work hours to write up this little summary.

The event was the largest in Drupal history (so far). We were honored to take part as Platinum Sponsors, but the event was a collaborative effort of so many companies and individuals, it was truly a community event.

Highlights:

This is the 2006 BlogHer website. At the time of this screenshot (and this writing), the site is still in beta -- i.e., public but still undergoing further development and design work.

The BlogHer website itself serves as a clearinghouse of information for the 2006 BlogHer Conference itself, but it's also a vibrant online builder of community for women with its multiple daily front-page blogs about what women (and men, too) are writing about on blogs covering all kinds of topics.

The BlogHer Blogroll is the third main component -- categorized blogs whose listings are submitted by any and all who register on the site. We did some custom coding to get all those blogrolls to list the appropriate categories while paginating gracefully and linking directly to the linked sites while still tracking click-throughs. We also have forums set up, and a few other things planned.
