Showcase site: youMashTube

I recently launched youMashTube, which lets you drag and drop 118 million YouTube videos into a playlist and save it as a webpage. youMashTube would not have been feasible for me to do if not for the advanced features made possible in Drupal 6, such as:

  • Integration with the new jQuery
  • An elegent system for internationalization
  • Menu callbacks and the node system
  • Javascript and CSS aggregation

I will make this talk accessible for all, giving brief introductions to technical areas when necessary. I would like to demonstrate how entrepreneurs can harness the power of Drupal to build a secure, powerful web application with a very small development team. Letting Drupal handle the backend logic frees small development teams to spend more time on advanced user interfaces and integrating with massive APIs such as YouTube.

I'm submitting this proposal after Chris Bryant asked me to give a talk on the Berkeley Drupal Users Group list...

Mashing, whether content or

Mashing, whether content or technologies, ties us all together and represents collaboration at a new level. I love the site - look-feel as well as concept and performance. I want to see how it was done.
