Enterprise IT site NplusN was built using RSS feeds, RSS2HTML, SimplePie, and joomla!
The site runs on Apache using PHP, MySQL and some javascript.
The site was built in roughly 30 minutes. If you count concept design and implementation you're looking at a maximum of about 2 hours time.

"A Full Rails Development Environment for OS X"

virtual — Fri, 09 Feb 2007 05:41:58 +0000

Hivelogic posted a fantastic article about getting a full Rails development environment on Apple OS X last week. I followed through the whole process of getting the latest Ruby and Rails packages together, installing Subversion, configuring Mongrel and slapping MySQL on top. Maybe some heavy reading, but well worth the trip.

"NAMP VM - NetBSD Apache MySQL PHP"

virtual — Thu, 23 Nov 2006 09:11:25 +0000

Posted to VMTN this week:
"NAMP stands for (N)etBSD + (A)pache + (M)ySQL + (P)ostgreSQL + PHP. It is the NetBSD equivalent of the popular LAMP deployment (Linux+Apache+MySQL+PHP) but also provides an installation of the powerful open-source database engine PostgreSQL. NAMP also provides the popular tools phpMyAdmin and phpPgAdmin for easy administration of MySQL and PostgreSQL over the web. Recent development by the NetBSD team has resulted in significant performance gains for this operating system and the popular opinion is that NetBSD rivals the Linux 2.6.x kernel in performance, while providing excellent stability and security out of the box. This appliance is an opportunity for everybody interested in experimenting with NetBSD and the two most popular open-source database engines.

"blandname forum open!"

I haven't been getting much feedback on the latest poll, and it's probably my fault because it's positioned under the adverts... oh well.
As a lazy developer and software-lover, my only choice is to implement ALL of the solutions, one at a time.
So that's how we got here with our second real announcement, after the Digg plugin for Pandion (thanks to 43things for reminding me once weekly that I needed to start an open-source project).
I've opened a forum for all to use - you can feel free to post tech support questions, links you have found, or just general chit-chat if need be. I've set up a pretty good spam filtering system, but we'll see how it works. I honestly have a hard time believing anything could work as well as Dr. Dave's Spam Karma 2 plugin for WordPress.
So head on over to the blandname forum and check it out!
I've set up BBPress there, and to be honest it was a cinch. I'll post a how to later, but it's not so involved. I was able to get modrewrite going right away - which in my opinion is an absolute necessity for proper SEO. I will be attempting to integrate the themes and users via MySQL shortly, so if you've registered with blandname, you'll have access to the forums as well.
