Google just announced Google+ for Google Apps users. This means that all of us "corporate" Google users can use the hyped service now.
I have been so lazy in testing Google+ that I actually tested the service for the first time today. All seems fine with it - I don't know what G+ has on Facebook and/or Twitter, but it does its job quite nicely. It might just be a couple years late.

A partner of ours, Uusi Suomi, has been running a Wordpress MU (now called Wordpress MS) -based blogging community since 2008. The basic stuff – blogging – has worked relatively well there all the time. The use of the word “relative” instead of “great” is based on the fact that the platform was never the most up-to-date version of WPMU and much of the cool stuff that is available now was not there for Uusi Suomi.

Monet pienet ja lähes kaikki suuret mediatalot käyttävät Drupal-julkaisujärjestelmää verkkomedioidensa julkaisualustana. Mearra järjestää lajissaan ensimmäisen Media+Drupal -iltapäivän suomalaisille media-alan edustajille keskiviikkona 28.4. alkaen klo 13.
Radioactivity is a Drupal module for providing hotness metrics for content. The module is originally developed for and sponsored by Uusi Suomi to replace the Drupal built-in node counter. The node counter records node loads for a certain node (a news item, a blog post etc.) and resets the daily counter at midnight. This has obvious limitations if you want more information than just the node counts per day.
