can you tell me more about 2 things that you mentioned that you did for other clients?
Both of these functions are on www.ExactEvents.com
1) social network
This started with a script that he purchased and I have modified it a lot. It is locked to work only on his domain, so we can only use it as a template...
2) ad serving?
He uses a program called phpAdsNews to manage his banner ads.
you have the scripts or at least know how to use them? Public sites?
