★ Just Launched: dooce Community
We're excited to announce today that our latest project, dooce Community has launched! We've been working closely with Heather and Jon on this new branch of the mega popular dooce empire, and we're very proud of the results.
The new site will allow members of the dooce community to get to know each other in a way their semi-anonymous commenting system never did. The site is a question/answer site ala Yahoo Answers, but members will be welcome to discuss whatever they like - from babies to cameras to politics.
Like the main dooce blog, the community is powered by Drupal. XOXCO built a bunch of new social gadgets for this site, and if you'd like to learn more about how we did it, come see Jon and I give our talk all about the site at this year's Do It With Drupal conference.
Many thanks to Jon and Heather, Ben Durbin, the support staff at LiquidWeb, and our friends at Lullabot whose help with Drupal's idiosyncrasies was invaluable.
