I just got back from DrupalCon 2009, which is a tech conference for people who use Drupal (an Open Source Content Management System). My site, BreakTheMatrix, is built using Drupal, so I wanted to see what cool things people are doing in the realm of Open Source development. I wasn't disappointed!


Thanks for watching, and as always, please pass along, rate, stumble, favorite, etc. if you like it!

A few sites using Drupal:

Cool people at DrupalCon:

Oh - and if you're looking for work, drupal developers are in high demand! It's pretty easy to get started...

Also, I randomly ran into my bff from high school, Olga Enger (http://compatible2u.com, http://twitter.com/missolgita)! We hadn't seen each other in YEARS...

I'm on twitter @ http://twitter.com/shellyroche or at bytestyle.tv

Enjoy :)

very true... your post makes a decent push for drupal, but you never showed me what makes it better than wordpress or even joomla? what does drupal have over these?
