Getting the Drop on the Social Web

At Podcamp London today co-web geek Anthony Vella-Zarb and I gave a presentation on using Drupal for social media. Includes some introductory information on Drupal, including why it's great for online communities, and the power of the community behind it.

We also talked about some of the modules that make Drupal great for social web sites, focusing mainly on Service Links, Flickr, Picasa, iTunes, Embedded Media Field, Activity Stream, the Facebook modules, and Twitter. After some illustrations and a quick example, we moved on to offering up some resources for learning more.

Came across this interesting application of twitter, implemented as a kind of exclusive subset:

It'll be interesting to see how many more of these spring up.
