Resources for “Weblogs and Slash”
August 1st, 2004 by Reuven M. Lerner in
The main distribution and discussion site for Slash is Slashcode. However, the InstallSlash site provides some good instructions, and the Slash IRC channel is home to a number of prominent Slash developers.
O'Reilly and Associates published a book on Slash, Running Weblogs with Slash, by Chromatic, Brain Aker and Dave Krieger. I have not read this book, but the sample chapter available on the O'Reilly Web site, as well as the table of contents, indicate that it may be a useful purchase, particularly for system administrators less experienced with Apache and mod_perl.
If you need help compiling or installing mod_perl, be sure to consult the mod_perl guide, compiled and edited by Stas Bekman. The guide has grown greatly over the years, and it now contains a great deal of wisdom about the installation, care and administration of a mod_perl site.

There's nuttin like a Cool Project to give you some relief from the summer heat, so get out your parka cuz we got a bunch of em. First up is the BUG, not a bug, The BUG. It's got a GPS, camera and more, in a hand-sized package that's user programmable. The BUG does everything. It's both a floor wax and a dessert topping. Get one now. Need a software version of a Swiss Army knife? Take a look at Billix, and don't leave home without it. Then, chew on this one, an X server on a Gumstix device driving an E-Ink display. Need more storage? How about 16 Terabytes? Can do.
And, of course, we have the usual cast of characters: Marcel, Reuven, Dave, Kyle, Doc, plus the new kid on the block Shawn Powers. But it doesn't stop there: build a MythTV box on a budget, build your own GIS system, set up the tools to monitor your enterprise and more. Finally, remember The War of the Worlds? Now you can play too.
