The Economist is now using Drupal 6 to serve the vast majority of content pages to its flagship web site, economist.com. The homepage is Drupal powered, along with all articles, channels, comments, and more. The Economist evaluated several open source CMS and proprietary solutions aimed at media publishers. In the end, The Economist chose Drupal for its vibrant community, and the ecosystem of modules that it produces. The Economist will be adding lots of social tools to its site over time, and doing so on its existing platform was too slow/inefficient.
The Economist hired Cyrve to migrate its large and volatile dataset to Drupal. With the sponsorship and encouragement of The Economist, Cyrve open sourced its migrate module which is the heart of its migration methodology. The Economist and Cyrve hope this article helps more sites migrate to Drupal.
we will be adding some more community features later down the line. Used some flash work. Used ubercart to power the store. Pretty simple good looking site with a strong drupal background so that we can grow it. I love drupal, it let's me keep my style yet have a powerful platform behind it. I could never pull this off easily with Joomla... via virtue mart :)

Theme
The theme was custom made. A website was needed that would attract potential new customers to the business and as a builder is more ‘what we can do’ the site was designed around a gallery of the contractors work.
Please let me know if you have knowledge about some important sites that use Drupal CMS and have multi-language support. I know this is a job done using some google research but I really need a quick turnaround. I appreciate all the answers.
