stokereport.com : drupal powered web 2.0 site for surfers
recently launched, stokereport.com is starting to make waves in the san francisco surfing community, as the first san francisco surf report website powered by user-generated content
powered by drupal 5.3 under the hood, stokereport is web 2.0 to the core. all content is user-generated, and users may submit reports via SMS, Twitter, mobile web or a traditional web browser. users may post pictures with their report, and vote for their favourites. this feature that has quickly led to a great collection of san francisco surf pics
stokereport is also a bit of a "mash-up" - combining data from the national weather service, weather underground, noaa and other regional weather services to provide current and forecast conditions for swell, wind and temperature.
and finally, if you can't quite get motivated to get in the water yourself, but still like to dream, check out stokereport's user-submitted "rants" - a great collection of news, videos and offbeat fun from the world of surfing.

A very good site indeed. I wish more sites like this were up for other bay areas as well. It shows the kind of flexibility Drupal has. Needs some serious knowledge of it i guess. I would have loved to start up something similar.

A colleague sent me a link to the site this morning and I signed up. The site is nicely done, clean and looks like the start of a nice community. Good work!

Very nice site - I love the design. It's very simple and efficient, yet provides a LOT of information without looking cluttered.
Question - what drew you towards Karma instead of one of the other million voting options (such as Push Up, for example).
