Yahoo using Drupal/Symfony
Nothing will make you more nervous than switching your entire business model to support a new technology :) Particularly when that technology is ONLY supported by the Open Source community. Regardless, it looks like we were right again - or at least not way off the beaten path.
Over a year ago, our team of super geniuses recommended we use Symfony/Doctrine as our MVC Framework & ORM. They also recommended we switch to Drupal for our CMS platform. After 3-6 months, we learned that Yahoo had been quietly using Symfony for their internal PHP app framework!!! Now, we have more good news :) Dries Buytaert had a good post letting us know that Yahoo is using Drupal to create some of their retail sites. Check out Yahoo Research to see Drupal in action.
