On January 15, 2001, University of Antwerp student Dries Buytaert released the first version of Drupal to the open source community. Dries had originally developed Drupal as a news site and message board that University of Antwerp students could use for discussion and content sharing. Drupal has grown into the most popular open source Content Management System on the market, with sites ranging from the White House to Fast Company to Warner Brothers Records built on the platform.
I started hearing about Drupal fairly early on, and began experimenting with it in around 2005. In 2006 we fully committed to Drupal, and it is now the primary platform for all of our web development projects. Embracing Drupal is one of the best decisions we ever made. It is a great platform with a phenomenal support community. It is simply the best open source Content Management System out there.
So as Drupal turns eleven this Monday, we wanted to thank Dries Buytaert for his stewardship of the platform and commemorate the occasion by showcasing some of our Drupal sites.
