The first thing I have to mention about Drupal 6 Social Networking (by PACKT Publishing) is that this book will be extremely handy to anybody new to Drupal and those looking for recipes to build community sites. It gives you the basic understanding of how Drupal works and what buttons you need to push to achieve desired results. It has great step by step tutorials (with screenshots) on the vast majority of common tasks you do with a Drupal site: content, menu and user management, permissions, adding and configuring modules, etc. It also helps you understand how Drupal modules integrate with each other to extend site functionality.

This concept was slightly changed versus previous Photoblog on Drupal idea. The biggest thing missing with the new concept comparing to the previous one is lack of any user level permissions. Any kind of private content was not so popular among my friends and colleagues so it was dropped (everybody prefer email for this type of images).

Basic 5.1 update is running fine. But there are some things yet to be updated and extended. Some new features for theme are in works. Super nice image_exact.module is missing for Drupal 5.x unfortunately (actually the only big upset). Other modules are basically the same as it was for 4.7 for now. I'll write more as soon as I'll have extra modules updated / installed.
