while searching for more real estate sites built on drupal found a simple one: http://www.explorentals.com. Nicely played with layout, views, gmap integration. First impression not bad.
NBAsketnews.com is new web site dedicated to NBA basketball league news. It covers general NBA news, and has additional sections with scores and players.
The site is in beta phase, so any comments/suggestions are most welcome.
I recently completed a website for my brother ( http://www.philiprothman.com ) who is a composer and decided to use Drupal for it. I thought I'd break down how it's put together and what I'd do/may do in the future to improve the usability on his end.
He has a lot of content, and his old site was a static site done in tables, so it quickly became unmanageable.
He wanted:
To be able to make updates easily
Not have to deal with as much code (he is comfortable with simple coding updates)
Multimedia capabilities: Flash slideshows, streaming music players, streaming video
An "ajax accordion" style interface with music playback functionality with the ability to update it. (this part proved most challenging).
Misc other things drupal handles well out of the box like SEO, the ability to swap out the design later on (css/themes), spam proof contact form etc
I did the site without using CCK and Views mainly because I was inexperienced with those modules at the time. So there are some pages that would have been much easier to create/style using them (see http://philiprothman.com/order for example, that is hardcoded in the node).
