Drupal is Open Source
Drupal is open source software maintained and developed by a community of hundreds of thousands of users and developers. It's distributed under the terms of the GNU General Public License (or "GPL"), which means anyone is free to download it, share it with others, and contribute back to the project. This open development model means that people are constantly working to make sure Drupal is a cutting-edge platform that supports the latest technologies that the Web has to offer
Create
Manage content with an easy-to-use web interface. Drupal's flexibility handles countless content types including videos, text, blogs, podcasts, and polls with robust user management, menu handling, real-time statistics and optional revision control.
Administer
Drupal comes with great options for new user accounts and user permissions. Users can be assigned one or more roles, and each role can be set up with fine-grained permissions, allowing users to view and create only what the administrator permits. The Drupal 7 admin theme makes administering a site easier than ever.
Organize & Find
Drupal comes with many tools to help you organize, structure, find and re-use your content. Categorize with taxonomy, automatically create friendly path URLs, create custom lists, associate different content on your site, and create smart defaults for content creators.
Collaborate
Drupal's focus on social publishing can help you create sites and applications to help your users express their opinions and engage with one another. You will be able to have tight control over who can create, view, administer, publish and otherwise interact with the content on your site.
Connect
Drupal makes it easy to connect your website to other sites and services across the web, using aggregation, feeds and search engine connection capabilities. Social networking integration is also widely supported to help you engage with a wider audience. Drupal also offers your site easy ways to interact with external media and file services.
