It gives me great pleasure to announce the new WXXI website launched this week. It has been an intense development schedule but loads of fun. The web development team at WXXI has been a great crew to work with. And I have found myself diving deeper into Drupal than I ever imagined. I also found myself sharpening my CSS and Javascript skills along the way, not a mention a bit more PHP and MySql as well.
The fun part of architecting this new site has been the rapid design cycle enabled by Drupal and all it’s myriad modules and theming capabilites. Got an idea in the morning? You can see it implemented by the afternoon. Or maybe even in a few minutes depending on the situation. Drupal ( or I should say Drupal and all it’s companion modules) succeeds because the granularity in component construction is at the web design pattern level. If a good idea for the web has been thought of, there is probably a Drupal module to support it.
