We're always telling people about our favourite CMS systems, Drupal, Plone, Joomla, Alfresco. These are the systems that we use to design and build websites for our clients and we love 'em!

So you can imagine just how thrilled we were to discover that we're in good company...

In November this year, the Executive Office of the President of the United States of America relaunched their website, Whitehouse.gov, using Drupal. In the video below, Macon Phillips addresses how the White House new media team wants to create opportunities for citizens to participate in their government. David Cole talks about why they wanted to change their technology platform, what they actually built, and where they are going with that new platform and Nik Lo Bue addresses how he wanted to use an amazing brand experience to visually communicate with citizens using Drupal.

We think it's pretty cool and hope you do too!
