So we're having a bit of a techie issue of OLDaily today. It happens. :) This post describes four Drupal modules that, as the title proclaims, solve 90 percent of your sitebuilding challenges. I could quibble about that (the implementation in Drupal is clunky, and as I see today following up this item, Drupal modules still have major documentation issues (though I was very impressed with the long list of functions in View). What's more important about this item than it's implementation, and why I'm mentioning it here, is the applicability of those four concepts generally. The thinking behind custom content, custom views, and panels is that every site is a one-off. So you're not restricted to the same content and operations as everyone else, but can design around completely new kinds of content.
