Acquia Provides Support to Bring College Mogul on Drupal Back Up

,----[ Quote ]
| Drupal has won Best Overall Open Source CMS Award for the second year in a 
| row as well as Best PHP Open Source CMS by Packt Publishing. After working at 
| Acquia for the past few months and learning about the Drupal phenonemon, it 
| comes as no surprise. I only wish I knew about Drupal earlier so I wouldn't 
| have wasted time toying with WordPress. WP is a nice platform, and you can 
| build great blogs on the software, but Drupal is able to take content 
| management to the next level. Drupal gives you the ability to build a social 
| network on top of your blog, add group functionality, profiles, blog 
| networks, or build sophisticated social publishing sites.
