I am new to phpbb and going to create a discussion forum on realestate.
i have create different forums(categories like Trend,developers,market analysis) and working fine. now what i want is to differenate the post of these forums based on city, so we can see all post related to delhi , and when on bangalore then see all bangalore posts.
need guidance.
The easiest method would be to use a MOD to append a prefix to the topic titles, there are several in the phpBB modification database to choose from (3.0.x). I'm not sure if any extensions have been made yet for the newer 3.1.x version (3.0.x mods will not work on 3.1.x and vice versa)

I need to create a poll/form with a few questions. The issue is that the possible answers are too varied to be able to predict them and put them as options (eg: "favourite fruit"), so I need it to be an open field option (as in the user can fill in his own answer). Then I need that input to be published on my blogger page/post.
eg:
Favourite color:
Blue
Favourite fruit:
Apple
Is there anyway to do that? I dont know which way to start looking, if in the direction of polls, questionnaires or forms.
Any piece of advice would be much appreciated.
Thank you
Sorry, Blogger doesn't provide any option to directly allow users to publish answers from polls into blog post.
You may use free online form generator websites ( Google Docs Forms , emailmeform and other form generating tools) to get the poll result in your email.
And manually add the data to your blog post.
Is there a built-in way to add tags to content in a similar way as with WordPress when using ExpressionEngine?
No, there's not an EE native equivalent to WP's tags. For something similar you need to go into the 3rd party market. Here are a couple of options:
Tagger, free & actively maintained & supported (support requires a "developer" license of $50
Tag, commercial at ~$60
Of these two I've only used Tagger. It got the job done nicely but I can't compare it to "Tag" since I haven't used it. There's another one called Taggable but I don't believe it's actively maintained or updated any more. (I would like to it but StackOverflow won't let me add more than 2 links until my rep increases.)
I've used both Tag and Tagger, mentioned by Erik. I have found for my needs Tag is more that enough to do the job. Tagger adds some higher level functions, but I didn't find I needed them in most cases.
I'd probably go with one of the two add-ons already listed though, to be thorough, there is also Taggable which Erik did mentioned though, couldn't link to it:

I dont want to waste lots of time on creating wrong functions
Plan:
It's already done, but to understand better.. I tell you :) So first thing I made: I added extra articles which are shown in main article. So it's looks like this: main article and extra nine articles in which i want to add voting.
Eeach article(extra articles, not main article) must have rating like in youtube - like and dislike. I think of using this script ( so the first question is - how to create this voting and add to these articles ? Should i create this voting plugin or component ? Or i already can add code to article view and model ? Each article will have different articles in them, based on votings and (later maybe?) on tags.
I wouldn't try to hard code a voting script into the core Joomla content files nor should you need to create you own plugin for this. There are lots of voting plugins on JED which I think will suits you needs. You can find them here:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/clients-a-communities/ratings-a-reviews
One of my favourite plugins is this:

Hope this helps.
I'm looking to add the Comments Plugin, but wish to keep the comments simple. I'd like to have just the user-photo and comment visible. Not the date of comment, reply, like, etc.
Please advise if this is possible and how one can restrict this.
Thanks very much...
Andy
This isn't possible any more. Previously, there were ways to override comment box CSS, but these were removed with version 2 of the plugin. So, you're stuck with what Facebook provides.
It's possible to post and retrieve comments using the Graph API, which would allow you to style them yourself - but it would require a fair amount of technical work.
I love data visualisation and to spread that love I thought we could share our favourite examples of data visualisation:
Chess moves http://turbulence.org/spotlight/thinking/chess.html
Chris Harrison's Visualisations http://www.chrisharrison.net/projects/visualization.html
I especially like the bible and Wikipedia visualisations.
If you're interested in creating your own visualisations a good place to start would be to check out processing.js (http://ejohn.org/blog/processingjs/).
Information Aesthetics's feed is on my home page and has been the source of many interesting visualizations since I've placed it there.
glTail.rb - real time log info, Linux only.
This is a recent favorite The Ebb and Flow of Movies: Box Office Receipts 1986 — 2008.
Blew my mind is college Napoleon's Invasion of Russia, 1812.
And always check out Tufte.
I always found Gource to be pretty interesting; check out some of the samples. Histories of git projects.
I find codeswarm really amazing. Check out the video of eclipse.
I just came across the JavaScript lib called Raphael, haven't tried it but the demos impressed me:

I'm surprised no one has suggested d3 yet. Check out the website, its awesome: http://mbostock.github.com/d3/
For a large collection of manually selected information visualizations, please see http://www.infovis.info -- some of the online collections that I drew from no longer exist!
I show or link some examples in my blog post here: http://mycarta.wordpress.com/2011/11/17/time-to-spice-up-your-visualization-skills/
There is also a terrific selection of examples on this thread in Quora:

A friend of mine did this and got it exposed at MOMA in NY
http://pmcruz.com/information-visualization/traffic-in-lisbon-condensed-in-one-day
It represents the trafic in lisbon over time, it was done with processing and there is no map behind it, just the coordinates of cars with public gps moving around
