 <title>How and why to build an online community</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/content/how-and-why-to-build-an-online-community.html</link>
 <description><![CDATA[This website is in it's third effort as a community. The first was a  move of 15 or so members split off of the old builder.com "Buzz" forum. Their own community when builder.com merged with another website after being purchased by another company. The website became commercial, charging a subscription for participation. This did not sit well with many long time members.

 <title>Aroundme Changes Directions and Loses Identity </title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/content/aroundme-changes-directions-and-loses-identity.html</link>
 <description><![CDATA[What ever happened to simplicity and keeping on track? These are two mainstays for success in developing software. Why the Aroundme project chose to throw out these things is beyond me. Once on their way to creating a popular PHP clone of the MySpace website they have changed directions and gone with some type of OpenSocial slash OpenID frankenstein.
When we first wrote about Aroundme they had a decent offering for social networking software written in PHP. Though not perfect and anything from fast the software was working and building popularity. The project had a few  problems though. One was the use of their software to run the project site was a mistake. This made it difficult to leave feedback and to actually get a hold of the software. The other problem is that there was no documentation of the software to be found.
Now if you visit the website you will see an offering of three different social networking tools but not a sign of the the original software offering. Now while these new bundles may be great they are not what people are looking for. They also do not have docs which makes placing any trust in this project, its products and its future a mistake. 
So is the way of the open source world. Things that are  great or have the potential to be so frequently die on the vine. It is a good thing that some PHP CMS watchers  like us have the foresight to save a compressed file or two just in case. Hopefully someone will want pick up on the original Aroundme project just where they started to become lost.
You will be able to find the archive of the old GPL code (0.7.8) here as soon as I find it.

 <title>AROUNDme: An Open Source PHP MySpace Clone</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/content/aroundme-an-open-source-php-myspace-clone.html</link>
 <description><![CDATA[While surfing around the different PHP developer forums and blogs I have seen the question of a MySpace.com clone come up more and more. The building of specialized social groups based on the MySpace architecture is going to be the next hot trend. But open source software for Social Networking is hard to find. The Barnraiser organisation is out to change this.

Groups.drupal.org is a fantastic idea and should be promoted more. It takes the idea of having a developer and interest groups section for a project one step further.

 <title>A continuous stream of Drupal meets</title>
 <link>http://www.hiveminds.co.uk/content/a-continuous-stream-of-drupal-meets.html</link>
 <description><![CDATA[There seems to be an awful lot of after hours activity surrounding the Drupal project. Developers and businesses are organizing small meets in different cities to talk about Drupal. This is good in that it may in the long run do something to change the online community for the better. Perhaps there will be more involvement by those that know more in the forums. But this remains to be seen.

 <title>Should there be a Drupal.se - Swedish Drupal Community?</title>

 <description><![CDATA[Should there be a Swedish Drupal Community? In the last week many things have happened. Following some advice I decided to fork Drupal into [Typical Text]. I have many reasons ofr doing this but a convincing part of the reasoning came out of a conversation with Anders Hamilton, a past student and Perl guru. Lately he has become interested in Drupal and PHP5.
