We recently redesigned and rebuilt the website of KogVet, the student association for students at the Cognitive Science program at Linköping University, with Drupal. KogVet is a very active organization and arranges a great number of events including parties, conferences and trips within Sweden as well as abroad.
The website is a social hub and a community site for the students at the program as well as a site for alumni and people outside the university wishing to learn more about us or our professional competences. A lot of customization was being done and we're still implementing some background features to simplify the maintenance of mailing lists and groups.
Features include
User Accounts with personal information, contact information and career information to create a dynamic user directory for classes, groups, association committees allowing members to easily find other members of the same age, business field or position.
Shared Calendar to post public calendar events such as lectures by visting researchers and professors, conferences, meetings, symposias and parties.The public calendar can be subscribed to using Google Calendar so that members can display it in their own personal calendars.
Powerful and Simple Posting of Job Positions allowing the association to easily announce new job offers or dissertation intern positions that are available to its members.
User Blogs to lets the members blog about anything they like, cognitive science or just daily reflections.
Forum for discussing the program, our campus, the university, student life or just anything that's of interest.
Photo Archive with photos from events, parties, festivals and different trips and conferences arranged by KogVet.
Cog World, a page aggregating feeds from several different blogs and sites that cover cognitive science and its many sub fields and applications.
KogVet Student Magazine 'Cogito' articles can now easily be posted to the site along with author information and details, using information from the site's user database and comments can be posted.
RSS Feeds are now available thanks to Drupals simple RSS syndication support letting all members take part of new content the moment it is posted on the site.
Wiki to collectively share and store information relevant to the members as well as the work of the association itself.
Web Standards Compliant code, table less layout done with XHMTL Strict and CSS. Planned multi platform support to allow easy access with mobile phones as well as PDAs.

Let me know what you think about the site and layout!
We launched a beta version of our land sale website today. It's in Romanian but it's made with Drupal and, we think, is a nice one from a tech point of view.
We used the google maps module and we've built another one for microsoft virtual earth. A couple of other custom modules were written for the whole map pages and bookmarks. Views was used in the backend to filter the offers by different characteristics and proximity searches. CCK is used for content types.
TheWorld.org is an daily international radio news magazine, co-produced by PRI, the BBC World Service, and WGBH. And it is running Drupal which brings us one step closer to our unofficial goal; "Gain World Domination"!
