In the first part in this series Matt Butcher looked at Drupal and the Amplify module and showed us how these two could be easily paired.

Part 2 takes the attention from installation of the basic pieces to configuration of a mini portal.

In part one of the Developer Diary, Justin James reviewed what it takes to make a request to the OpenAmplify service.  This week, he explores how to use the OpenAmplify results to make the comparison of author demographics and styles between two individual documents.
