What is Drupal?
Based on it's feature set and the strength of it's community, Forrester Research recently recommended Drupal as one of the top web applications for enterprise use.
Out of the box Drupal is an application which provides a rich toolset to manage the content and behaviour of your website, including content management and advanced community building features.
Drupal is also framework for rapid development, so new features such as eCommerce can be quickly added by installing a plug in from a library of existing modules, over 2,000 currently available, or you can develop your own modules and plug them in.
Who's Using Drupal?
Sony, Universal, Warner Brothers, AOL, Yahoo, Adobe, Imagination, Pfizer, Price Waterhouse Coopers, and Sun Microsystems....and many other organisations. You've probably been to a Drupal site without realising it.
Note
The event will be limited to 100 attendees. If it fills up before you get a ticket, please use the 'Contact the Host' link to let us know we need to get a bigger venue for the next event. Note that there is a pub below the venue, where the meeting will likely move after 9 p.m.
