phpBBHacks.com Mentioned (Many Times) in New phpBB Book
Building Online Communities With Drupal, phpBB, and WordPress is a new book written by my good friend Jared Smith and published by Apress.
I’ve known Jared for years. I met him because of phpBBHacks.com and he was one of the original members of the Support Team at phpBBHacks.com. He was there in those early days when we really had to grind (not that we don’t now) to establish ourselves and simply not die - despite what others might have wanted. He was a big part of it and I’ll always be greatful for his support during that time.
So, it’s a great feeling for me to see a second book co-authored by a member/former of my Support Team (the first was Building Online Communities with phpBB authored by my friend Jeremy Rogers, current phpBBHacks.com Support Team member).
phpBBHacks.com was mentioned quite a few times in this book (even on the back cover). I know what you may be thinking “well, Jared’s your buddy, of course.” That’s not Jared. He mentioned us because we’re the best (in his opinion), not because of me. Individuals like Jared (and Jeremy) are a part of what makes what I do worth it.
It is an honor to be mentioned in such a way in a book of this quality.
