Moving to WordPress

I’ve used Drupal to power my blog since I started it over 2 years ago. It has been a bitter sweet relationship, but in general I’ve been pleased. In those two years, WordPress as a product has rocketed past Drupal, and feels much more mature. While Drupal 7 should level the field a bit, it’s a ways away and WordPress 3.0 is already here.
Top Sites Running Drupal

Drupal is a very powerful Content Management Solution. Many other organizations both large and small have found it to be a perfect platform for managing their website including some Fortune 100 companies. I decided to compile a list of some of the more notable organizations running drupal. This list is not exhaustive, but intended to demonstrate top site powered by drupal. If you know other top sites also powered by drupal, please list them in the comments below. Read more
Getting Started With Drupal

Drupal is a very powerful content management solution. It powers this website as well as zoopframework.com. Drupal is a relatively easy to use system, but there are a few key concepts that you really need to understand in getting started. I often find that webcasts are fantastic resources for instruction. I recently helped a non-techie friend setup a drupal site and was suprised at how many (really bad) drupal videos existed online. I have compiled some of the better ones here as a resource and guide to getting started with Drupal.
I focused on getting started with Drupal, assuming you have already installed Drupal. I’ll create a separate post on installing Drupal or use Justin Hileman’s excellent guide.
Best Drupal Themes

In my opinion Drupal is the best CMS available. It is full featured, scalable, and easy to use. Due to how powerful it is and how large the community is, Drupal can be a bit overwhelming to start. I’ve compiled a list of the best themes available. I’ve only listed themes available for Drupal 6 (though some also work with 5.x and 4.x). Thumbnails are provided by the theme designers.

I’ve made the decision to take control of my feeds. I want to know how many users are reading my blog via sydication so I’ve decided to move to feedburner. The migration will be seemless for all readers. Additionally I’ll be able to provide syndication via email as well. Read more
