Bill Gates will not return the phone called of Fiji Attorney General Aiyaz Sayed-Kaiyum. Sayed-Kaiyum has written to Gates in which he says "Fiji asserts its absolute ownership over the use of the world ‘Fiji’."
REM is using Drupal for its tour website. Drupal is gaining a lot of traction with a lot of high profile websites switching to Drupal recently. I am particularly excited about REM's use of Drupal because I am a huge REM fan (and obviously a huge Drupal fan)!

After spending several years learning languages like xhtml, css, php and mysql (not to mention other things like SEO, Affiliate Marketing and Drupal), I have decided that I really need to add some more geeky things to the list.
When I first heard about Twitter I thought it was quite simply the dumbest idea I have ever heard of. But after reading loads of people saying how much they love it, I decided to give it a try.
One of the core features of Drupal is the ability to run a multisite setup. That means that you can run multiple websites from the same code base. The advantage is that is makes upgrading the core and contributed modules a lot easier and faster, as you just have to upgrade once, rather than multiple times.
The team at SeoQuake have made this brilliant Firefox addon even better. If you have not used SeoQuake before, it allows you to see vital SEO stats for each site in a Google search. These stats include:
I was always of the opinion that when people who use Wordpress discover Drupal, they eventually switch to Drupal. This is because I feel that Drupal is far more powerful and flexible than Wordpress.
