A friend forwarded me this this marketing blog today. The writing style is pretty funny but her points are dead on. There is also an active community of commentors, which are equally engaging.

Interestingly, the White House has ditched their proprietary content management system in favor of Drupal, another open source content management platform not unlike formVista.

As reported on Slashdot:

"WhiteHouse.gov has gone Drupal. After months of planning, says an Obama Administration source, the White House has ditched the proprietary content management system that had been in place since the days of the Bush Administration in favor of the latest version of the open-source Drupal software. Dries Buytaert reflected on this, adding: 'this is a clear sign that governments realize that Open Source does not pose additional risks compared to proprietary software, and furthermore, that by moving away from proprietary software, they are not being locked into a particular technology, and that they can benefit from the innovation that is the result of thousands of developers collaborating on Drupal.'"

This is an excellent bullet point presentation that my business partner, Anatoly, found. It's by the founder of Digg.com.
