Epic Drive

Submitted by Andre Molnar on April 14th, 2010

We finished the first leg of our road trip to San Francisco today.

The idea was to get to somewhere in the middle of Iowa on Tuesday and spend the night and move along today (Wednesday) to get somewhere near Denver. But, something funny happened. We decided to push through and managed to go 2,200 KM in 24 hours. It would have been over 2,400KM, but there were times when we were both sleeping at the side of the road and not driving.

So, here we are in Denver many hours ahead of schedule and able to relax and get cleaned up at a hotel.

Here's the cube by the pony express statue at the Colorado state 'Welcome Centre'

More pics to come as time allows.

Getting Ready for Drupalcon 2010

Submitted by Andre Molnar on April 7th, 2010

Where did the winter go? Quite frankly, who cares.
Its spring again and that means that Drupalcon is just around the corner. Drupalcon for those of you that don't know is a twice yearly event for Drupal nerds to get together and talk shop. What's Drupal? Well it runs thousands of websites around the world, including this very cube community.
As part of the contest to win the cube I promised to decorate my Cube in Druplicons (the Drupal mascot) and drive it to the next North American Drupalcon. Well, that is fast approaching and I'm excited to get on the road.
This road trip is going to take me across the continent. I'm most looking forward to driving through the Rockies near Denver. Also, after the conference I'll be swinging north to Washington state and will make stops in 'Twin Peaks' and 'Cicely Alaska' (Roslyn). (Yes, I was fans of both Twin Peaks and Northern Exposure). &nbs

File under better late than never. Here are a couple of pics of my Montreal roadtrip roommates taken at the Toronto holiday Cubist meetup in December. 'younicorn' iPhone app produced the stunning results here. Rannie, Jasin and Mark look like superstars.

Cube Community Extreme Makeover Edition

Submitted by Andre Molnar on February 12th, 2010

Whoa. Its been a while since I've blogged here. But, I've been keeping busy.

You may have noticed that Cube Community dot CA has gotten a face lift. I had a little to do with that and its one of the projects that's been keeping me busy lately.

What you'll notice:

A brand new banner picture at the top.
A brand new banner picture at the top you can play with. Try clicking on the arrows on the left and right edge of the banner. (fun huh?)
An updated design that has more or less the same colour scheme as before, but used in a better way to define the space.
A new featured section on the home page. (The link is in the blue part of the navigation at the top of the page)
Rounded corners all over the place. (unless you're using Internet Explorer or an older browser - then you see sharp corners all over the place which can be cool too)
Other stuff I may have forgotten to mention.

There are a few more minor tweaks that will be applied, but I think you'll agree that this look is much improved.

Live Music in Toronto

Submitted by Andre Molnar on November 26th, 2009

This post has absolutlely nothing to do with my Cube life. In fact its about doing stuff that almost never involves driving (since I don't drive if there's a chance I might like a beer or two).

So what is it? Well, I am just blown away by the number of great shows in Toronto over the next little while.

Last night I was down at the Elmo (el Mocambo) to see Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros with openers Fool's Gold. A great show and good time had by all. (I think this review is spot on - but didn't touch on how great the Talking Heads inspired Fool's Gold was).

On Sunday night I'm going to be checking out Big Pink at Lee's Palace.

On December 2nd The Friendly Fires are playing at the Phoenix. (I missed out on tix for that)

December 4th has got King Khan (IMHO Montreal's Garage Rock God) at Lee's.
