Marjorie Roswell | May 2009 | MySQL Content Management Drupal Open Source PHP
This is the first part of a two-part article series by Marjorie Roswell. All of the recipes in this article require CCK and the date field (also Views, and Views UI), so we won't take the space to list them in every ingredient list. In this two-part article, we create a wide variety of views, mostly from a single workshop content type. Several of the views implement style plug-ins, which appear as new options in the Views Type drop-down. If you are still working on the 1.x versions of Date, be sure to check out Recipe 44, Upgrade Date and Calendar Modules which will be discussed in the next part.

Feeds are a very important part of Facebook Applications. They are used to publish notifications and news in a user's profile. So, feeds are the best way to keep the friends of the users up-to-date about the user's current activities. Feeds are also a great way to publicize your applications, if you know what I mean.
In this article by Dr. Mark Alexander Bain and Hasin Hayder, we will go into the details of managing feeds (both news feed and mini feed) using Facebook REST APIs. The following sections will help you understand what the major differences between these two types of feed are, and how to use them properly in your application.
