Interesting New Modules

Audio Recorder - Provides new filefield widget “Voice recorder”. Using this widget you can easily record your voice through microphone and store it in a filefield.

Apache Solr Exclude Node - Makes it possible on node level to exclude a node from Apache Solr. This is useful if you have indexed a specific content type, and want to exclude a few nodes of that type.

Textbook - Provides a combination of CSS Styles, WYSIWYG settings, and well-designed CSS3 page templates to provide clean, accessible, and visually impressive styling. It does this in an attempt to help any theme provide consistent textbook styling for the production of online course materials without the need for advanced knowledge of CSS/HTML.

Module Drupal Links - Creates additional links on the admin/modules form linking to the Drupal.org project and issues page for each contrib module.

Do not waste paper - Displays a message on the print page in browser. I love this.
