VideoSwiperPlus is now online

VideoSwiper Plus is now online, it is a set of premium services for the original VideoSwiper. This site adds a few important required services to videoswiper making it even better.

Last 5 - 6 weeks been working on it and learned a lot. As this deals with Video’s on a web , not only checked out a lot of Video Scripts but also had to do encoding , thumb nailing etc of videos. Also found out that most Video Scripts out there are badly coded and have bad databases ( No one ever heard of normalization ?? ) . It is based on BaseApp and build on it was fun.Anyhow it was a nice experience , So if you run a Video Site do check it out.

Joodr Profile System - Content profile vs Core profile

As Joodr is based on Drupal 6 , Neither Nodeprofile or Bio can be used for profile system. So basically I had two options Content Profile and the core profile.module .  Both have their own advantages and disadvantages.

So after some digging around and looking how it works Joodr will be using a profile as node system using content profile. The main reason for me choosing this is how the data is stored when using core module and when using profile with CCK . I found profile with CCK is much better. There are other reasons too but overall for a SNS to be as scalable and configurable as possible content profile would be better, for smaller ones core profile should do just fine.

So i will be finally using content profile as profile module for Joodr.
