test_user Drupal Ads Module Blog

A typical Bottleweb.org blog page

This is the test user account for the Drupal Ads Module. To create the ads on this page I created an account with Google adsense. I then set up some ads. The Ads module is currently set up to only allow a 200x200 space for the left Block, a 120x600 space for the right block, and a 728x90 space for the header and footer blocks. I created ads for all 4 zones with Google Adsense.

Unique urls for Drupal site members

To give our users cool looking urls, as well as optimise the chance of their blogs being found on google, we've made some significant changes to the Core functionality of Drupal. Since the Drupal software and accompanying Modules were completely free, it's only right that we share with you how we did this, so that others can benefit from this amazing software. A big thanks to everyone who contributed at Drupal.org, as well as the Pathauto module which we will use in this tutorial.

The Water Car Hoax

Water What?

I'm really going into the Lion's den with this one and I don't know if this is going to be blogger suicide, but having read so many people's views about these 'Water Cars' I really felt like I had to write this commentary. Before I start, let me just establish my background, and why I feel qualified to criticise the feasibility of the Water Car technology. I have studied basic Chemistry and Nuclear Physics, have an Honors Degree in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, and most importantly have taken a lifelong interest in the evolution of new ideas and technology. If you are the kind of person who promotes these sorts of technologies you'll probably believe that my years at University have only brainwashed me into thinking the way that they want me to think. But no matter what your views, I do encourage you to read this article, if only to get a new perspective.

Review: ACER, Uncut

A Blissful purchase

The phrase ‘Nightmare Experience’ is thrown around a lot these days. I don’t know where mine fits in, but I am fairly sure it would raise the standard for absurdity and corporate arrogance, especially from a respected multinational like Acer. I’m just one person, and I got screwed for it. But this isn’t the story of someone who got beaten, so for all of you who are in need of some inspiration in taking on a company as the little guy, read on. Also, if you’re thinking of buying an Acer product, I beg you, I really do, to read this first.

What is Sustainability?

Terms like Sustainable and Renewable are commonly used to describe sources of materials and energy. They are commonly used in conversations relating to the environment and global warming. Multinational mining companies, government organisations and environmental groups alike will generally agree that the world is experiencing a “global transition to sustainable development" (http://www.riotinto.com/SustainableReview/).

Why I disagree with Nick Louth and "Why Biofuels won't help Climate Change"

Recently an article was published with the title "Why Biofuels Won't help Climate Change". The sentiment of that article was that although the implementation of biofuels was a reality, the drawbacks are far too great to get any real CO2 benefits in the end. The article went a bit like this:

Quote:
For all the excitement over the issue, biofuels are not going to be much help in reducing carbon emissions, or in slowing the consumption of oil reserves. In fact, the entire biofuel industry is already in deep trouble because of that old adversary: economics.
