There is a lot of talk about reponsive webdesign these days, and while we think this is definitely a step in the right directions, it also has its drawbacks. For example it doesn't give you that 'app-like' feeling. We recently launched the mobile site of BredaVandaag.nl, (a local newssite) which uses JQuery Mobile for the mobile version. We used a combination of mobile tools, mobile_jquery theme, jquerymobile_ui and some custom code to make detection work in Varnish. Check it out with your mobile and let us know what you think!

Drupalcon Denver session proposals close November 14th! There are a wopping 565 (!) proposals which you can check out here. You can rate sessions (which is a real pain by the way without a decent next/previous button) but selection is mainly done by the track chair comittee. According to some, the whole voting process is just a waste of time. In any case, I see *a lot* of interesting sessions and can't wait until March!

Discovered this today, when we wanted to change a custom Drupal 7 view mode programatically for a specific situation. It turned out this isn't that obvious. It actually was easy to do this in Drupal 6, and there is an issue with patch which hopefully will be back-ported and commited to D7.

In Drupal 6 we had übercart. Now we have commerce for Drupal 7 (well actually we have übercart for D7 too but that's a different story). In any case, commerce is the way to go. And for us in the Netherlands, iDeal is the way to pay online. Thanks to Bart Feenstra we already had an iDeal API module for 7 and now we have commerce integration! Hooray!
