During my short time of working with Drupal I learned to love and hate it. I’m sure in my limited time of working with Krug, he’d say he just hates it. Thus this site runs on WordPress but I really enjoy it. I run a few of my local client sites on Drupal and there’s never been a single complaint. It has an amazing backend that is really intuitive.
Drupal is a free software package that allows an individual or a community of users to easily publish, manage and organize a wide variety of content on a website. Tens of thousands of people and organizations have used Drupal to power scores of different web sites, including”:
* Community web portals
* Discussion sites
* Corporate web sites
* Intranet applications
* Personal web sites or blogs
* Aficionado sites
* E-commerce applications
* Resource directories
* Social Networking sites
Drupal includes features to enable content management systems, blogs, collaborative authoring environments, forums, newsletters, picture galleries, file uploads and download, and much more. Drupal is open source software licensed under the GPL and is maintained and developed by a community of thousands of users and developers. Drupal is free to download and use.”
So if you’ve never test driven Drupal give it a shot, its easy to use and definitely a powerful force in web publishing and community building.
