Arabiyat.com is a Saudi-Arabic online magazine which provides high profile interviews and background stories on the "who's who" of the Arab world. Arabiyat International is a Jeddah (SA) based Internet agency who developed the new portal in Drupal in cooperation with Morningtime Digital from Munich, Germany. The initial goal was to lay the foundation for a portal that could potentially grow from 1,000 to 50,000 nodes, which made Drupal the clear choice for the project.
Arabiyat.com has a special section for women and employs multiple blog authors to write original content. The news portal has long been active since the late 1990's, starting from scratch and evolving through several different CMS systems. The Internet was introduced to the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in 1999, and Arabiyat International was an early pioneers, which came up with the first fully integrated Arabic magazine on the internet in the year 2000.
Morningtime Digital developed the Drupal backbone and was responsible for the migration from the Vivvo CMS. All content is created by Arabiyat Intl.
For this project, we combined three older websites into one new fresh website. We were able to achieve this successfully because of the Drupal Framework, the available Drupal modules, and the ability to easily incorporate our own custom PHP code into Drupal.

As someone building a local community site, I'm always curious to see what other people do. I've found some here and there, mostly by accident, but was thinking that it would be nice to make a thread to gather them all.
I'll start us off with mine but keep in mind that it's not even close to being finished and this isn't meant to be a showcase about my site. :) Coulee Region Online covers the area of SW Wisconsin, SE Minnesota, and a bit of NE Iowa and NW Illinois.
