Video about Drupal wins several awards
A short video on Drupal has won six Telly Awards. Drupal is the Content Management System and application framework Panmedia uses to build client websites. It is an open source platform used by companies such as FedEx, Sony BMG and the United States Government.
The video, "What is Drupal?", is a multi-media style introduction to Drupal that is only one minute long. Produced by pingVision, the video was produced on an Apple Mac Pro using Final Cut Studio, with motion graphics and compositing created in Apple’s Motion.
According to its website, the Telly Awards honor the very best local, regional and cable television commercials and programs, as well as the finest video and film productions and work created for the web.

In recent times, several social networking tools and micro-services connect people digitally in ways we have not experienced before.
While the telephone and email manages to keep us fairly well connected, there seems to be a growing desire for richer, quicker means of staying "in the know" about anyone or anything that interests us. Friends want status updates on that special occasion or experience as it happens, and it's finally possible to let them have it.
