    Drupal is a content management system but actually it's more than that. I am a PHP Programmer but for almost three years now I shifted 100% to Drupal.

    By the way, here are some people using Drupal;
    Sony, Nasa, Harvard, Firefox, United Nations, Hollywood, Disney, Discovery Channel, NHL, Sourceforge, and a whole lot more.

    You can check this site for the list of big groups using Drupal - http://buytaert.net/tag/drupal-sites.

    What do you think?

    Well i am also a php programmer but mostly i use Customized database. As comparing to other CMSs drupal is better but the most simple is wordpress. Though i havnt worked on any of them, i still dont know which CMS is better for all types of application.

    I remember when I got my first install of Drupal it's really frustrating. I left Drupal for almost a year after that. But when I got to look at the sites that uses Drupal, I was curious. So, I did my personal research and It's amazing. Drupal saved my work over 80%. You've got to try them in your sites.

    Btw, visit my site www.MyDrupalServices.com. Thanks!

    I am totally torn between Drupal and Joomla. I used to mess with it last year but switched over to Joomla. I think its an excellent tool to build rich websites.

    My only drawback with Drupal was that it did not have a very large online support community.

    Joomla is good for simple websites. No doubt about it :)

    Drupal is for robust web 2.0 applications. Drupal is good for social network sites, membership sites, ecommerce, video portal sites and anything you can think!
