Just saw an interesting video about implementing Drupal as the CMS for the WhiteHouse.gov site. For those that are not familiar with Drupal, it is an open-source content management system (CMS). Basically, it is a free tool that is used to mangage the content on websites, without having to know a whole lot about HTML, Javascript, etc. It’s good to have some knowledge of these things, but the idea is to be able to log in, type your content or upload your pictures, and see your results in an organized manner on your website. WordPress and Joomla are a couple of the other popular open source CMS’s.

Nevertheless, below is the video for you to view…
