Did it tell you about Sequel Pro?
You can use it to connect to your local MAMP and also to remote LAMP mysql servers (via SSH). Why is this so awesome?
Well, not only is it 100 times faster than that phpMyAdmin, but you can edit your DB super easily, like a spreadsheet. It is a snap [...]
Users often require a limited set of stylistic controls over content on their site. We implement this in Drupal using the wysiwg module and TinyMCE.
Commonly, users need to create subheadings in their posts. Markup should always be privileged over wrapping content in classes. For example, it is much better, both from a structural and a [...]

Techsoup Global was founded in 1987 by a couple of guys in a station wagon, who went around collecting all the freebee [...]
launching theRetailSaver.com

The site is a business listings site, intended to partner with a mail print product put out by Exposure Marketing Solutions. Listing pages [...]

BIAs are associations of commercial property owners and tenants within a defined area who work in partnership with the City to create thriving, competitive, and safe business areas that attract shoppers, diners, tourists, and new businesses.
Toronto’s BIAs play an important role in urban [...]
DrupalCamp Toronto 2008 took place on Friday, May 23 and Saturday, May 24 2008 at the Bissel Building at U of T. Thanks to organizers André Molnar, Alan Dixon, Jane Zhang, Jamon Camisso, Dan Kurtz, myself, and William Roboly (last-minute chauffeur extraordinaire), the event went off pretty well, in my estimation.
Some photos of the event [...]
