Drupalsites.net is celebrating 7 years online. It has grown from a small list of sites into an impressive Drupal showcase featuring over 4100 websites as of today (and historical count close to 8000 submits). Currently Drupalsites.net, the first and the largest Drupal showcase featuring Drupal-based site of all shapes and sizes, from blogs to portals, from portfolios to online stores.
The very first version of drupalsites.net was launched on October 31, 2005 (http://drupal.org/node/35852). In 2005 the idea was simple: hey, all those Mambo-Jumbo CMS has some kind of site directory but Drupal does not. In addition, the list of Drupal powered sites at drupal.org was down for a few month back then, so we decided to create our own directory.
At first it was a kind of views/visitors rating competition (somewhat fashion of the day). But there were also many site owners who would like to showcase their sites without competitive games or counters placed on commercial live sites. Hence no-competition Drupal directory was born on November 27, 2005 (http://drupal.org/node/39041).
Since then there were a lot of updates both in functionality and design, but the concept remains: Drupalsites.net is a non-commercial Drupal showcase, and we invite you to submit your Drupal creations to help spread the word about this CMS.
Take a look at few historical screenshots of Drupalsites.net:
