Uusisuomi.fi was launched this morning and the site seems to be using Drupal.

Uusisuomi.fi is a reincarnation of a quality newspaper in Finland that has its roots in 1847 when its predecessor Suometar was born. The publication of Uusi Suomi was discontinued in 1991. Nikotiimi Oy, owned by one of Finland's richest man Niklas Herlin, bought the trademark of Uusi Suomi in May 2007 and his project with Uusi Suomi has attracted a lot of attention in Finnish media before the launch today.

Oh, just a little addition to my previous post. I have absolutely nothing to do with uusisuomi.fi except that I had waited the launch of the site like everybody else in Finnish media scene. When I noticed that the site is built on a Drupal platform I thought I'd mention it here.

I guess that the scrolling headlines is made with the Taxonomy Ticker module.

Hi,

The news ticker is a self-made solution that generates HTML code in the ticker iframe which in turn scrolls the news around (using javascript).
