Thanks for explaining the difference. I am working on a new project. A huge spin off and was trying to figure out the wp vs drupal vs joomla debate.

Of course I will end up outsourcing, but I like to know why things work the way they work. I was actually going to use WP, but I will have to rethink that.

None of these "old media" types get it. Yet I don't have the time to burnish my tech skills to pull it off. I can code intuitively, but learning "the rules" takes some time.

Probably time for another post on outsourcing ;)

WP is designed for a few authors to post content or submit content.
Drupal can set per-feature permissions for the content, i.e. allow certain types of authors to post to categories, edit their own posts (even after they are published), etc.

WP doesn't have a limitation to what types of content (or tags used) can be entered by users.
Drupal can do this on a per-user basis and incorporate other editors besides the default Tinymce.

WP has hooks to display listing of content with certain tags or categories, but not much else.
Drupal can add logic and expose these filters for 'views' of content.

Just a few things I like...

Hey, what's wrong with WordPress! LOL! I'm a WP fan.

I will have to explore Drupal in the future to see what you like about it so much.
