Drupal Momentum

       Open source, social publishing phenomenon.
       Drupal powers >1.5% of the Web.


       Market Size [1,000,000+ sites]
       Innovation [7,000+ modules]
       Community [800,000+ members]


                     [  “… is as much a Social Software platform
                        as it is a web content management system.”

Flexible, Open Architecture

              Architecture to “assemble” experiences from
              building-blocks instead of code sites from scratch.
