Just came across this article http://www.boxesandarrows.com/view/implementing_a_pattern_library_in_the..., and was wondering whether Drupal is still being by Yahoo. Looking at source didn't indicate whether this was still the case, maybe someone else has another way of determining this?

It's perfectly possible to alter the source in such a way it's hardly or not possible to see whether the site's running Drupal or not. With my own site this is the case as well. It's just a matter of using custom *.tpl.php files and theme overrides.

There are a couple of ways to check if a site is running Drupal.

Go to:
http://example.com/user
http://example.com/?p=user

or see if the directories exist, for example, visit:
http://example.com/modules

and see if the server adds a trailing slash. If the server adds a trailing slash then it means there is a physical directory there. You can test the server to see if Drupal's physical directories are there.

It doesn't look like that site is running Drupal.

Nice! Especially their AJAXy 'Make a Plan'.
