Drupal only for a blogs ? That must be a joke. Colleagues of mine developed Drupal websites for a shop, a dog school, karate club etc. in their spare time.
look around at http://www.flashmint.com/wp/2012/08/20-best-drupal-sites-of-2012/ (or one of the many other sites listing interesting drupal sites) But as usual, their is no silver bullet and everyone will propose/defend the tool they are most familiar with. I'll agree with Ben, that reusing what other countries are doing is the way to proceed ("standing on the shoulders of giants" :-) ) Please do not try to reinvent the wheel by starting from scratch regards m On Wed, Sep 11, 2013 at 5:44 AM, Marc Gemis <[email protected]> wrote: > I believe that there was a blog post on Coding Error that stackoverflow > got most traffic via google search.
