Hello! Let me add Mike, he knows more about what is possible with Drupal than I do.

This might have been the main focus in the past, but now CalDAV/CardDAV are also possible (and perhaps even more relevant). And there will be ActiveSync. How about this: SyncEvolution synchronizes personal information management (PIM) data via various protocol (SyncML, CalDAV/CardDAV, ActiveSync). It syncs contacts, appointments, tasks and memos. It syncs to web services or to SyncML-capable phones via Bluetooth.

Sounds good. I just don't know how to do it.

True. The idea was that not all blog posts are "featured", but because only very few get posted, all of them ended up being highlighted like that. Where would visitors find the posts, if not on the main page?
