CMS Wire Update on Buzzr.com Highlights Benefits of our Drupal UX layer

Posted by Ed Sussman on November 17th, 2009 at 5:28am

Great update on Buzzr from Dee-Ann LeBlanc of CMS Wure: http://bit.ly/LdDcF

First time we make the analogy that Buzzr is the "automatic transmission" to Drupal's "clutch" -- a lot more people can drive an automatic, even as sports car enthusiasts wouldn't want to give up the power of the clutch.

More highlights:

"Staying with Drupal 6 lets the Buzzr team wait until they feel all of the necessary Drupal 7 modules are ready and stable before migrating the platform to the new version. Unlike many Drupal 6 users, however, Buzzr users may barely notice the change. No doubt they'll get new functionality along with the update, but Buzzr is a usability layer on top of Drupal."

and:

"Sussman hints that in addition to the main Buzzr release, they're also working on "providing white label multi-site solutions for enterprises interested in rolling out social-media friendly sites quickly and efficiently..."

Agreed this looks like a great update for the everyday user of Drupal 6 and they will hardly notive any change which is always good for users.
