Drupal keeps on kicking ass

I've been away from the web development for quite awhile, but I recently had to create a small website for a little side project. So I went back to what I knew; i.e. Drupal.

Why anyone would create a website in anything other than Drupal is a mystery to me. The tools and framework are so so clean, the architecture so mature, the pace of development so rapid . . . it never fails to impress. Ever.

A few new modules that are now available just cry out for a little praise. You've GOT to try some of these:

Fusion
An amazing base theme. Grid or float, this thing rocks.

Skinr
Want to make your theme skinable!? This is the skinning tool Fusion is based on, and someone has put a lot of thought into making it work beautifully. I couldn't be happier . . . so far.

Administration Menu
I had no idea I needed this until I started using it . . . Oh my god . . . the ease of use, I think my Drupal maintenance efficiencies just went through the roof.
