Plone and Drupal: Different Approaches, Different Results

paul.nowak wrote: Matt, thanks for the comments. I made an error on the version of Plone. It's 2.5 Plone running on Zope 2.9x. In regards to the additional products, we have a skin installed and we have a product that we had custom developed for us that connects to a PostgreSQL database. We've looked at slow PostgreSQL queries causing problems and have not been able to find an issue. We've also tested for the case where the PostgreSQL server is down and have not been able to create an issue. We therefor...

Free Service Lets Children Call Santa Claus Directly

TelSanta.com Puts Children's Wish Lists in Parents' E-mail Boxes

By: PR Newswire

Nov. 9, 2006 06:00 PM

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Every Christmas, children across the world write thousands of letters to Santa Claus, asking for new bikes, TMX Elmo dolls and even their two front teeth. But today's sophisticated children prefer a more direct route to Saint Nick. The problem is, he's unlisted. Until now.

With Santa's phone number in hand, children can leave a message for Santa Claus himself.

It all starts with a visit to http://www.telsanta.com/.

The free service, powered by TollFreeForwarding.com, uses Voicemail2myEmail(tm) technology to capture messages and deliver them by e- mail to anyone who signs up for the service. Children call a toll-free number and listen to a message from Santa. He will ask them to record their wish list. Moments after the child leaves his or her voice wish list, the message is delivered by e-mail to Mom or Dad with a .wav file of their child's wish list, in their child's voice.

"You can hear your child's wish list on your computer, forward it to family and friends, and save it forever along with your child's other keepsakes," said Travis May, president of TollFreeForwarding.com.

Parents must register for the free service ahead of time so that the system knows where to deliver the voice recorded wish list. The interface -- http://www.telsanta.com/ -- gives parents the option of having their children's voice wish list sent simultaneously to their spouses or partners, grandparents or siblings -- anyone who has an e-mail address.

TelSanta.com does not save the children's messages. The system works just like voicemail, but the message is immediately sent by e-mail instead of residing on a phone service provider's system.

Visit http://www.telsanta.com/ for instructions, frequently asked questions and to test TEL-SANTA for yourself.
