White House Marine

I was recently on the White House website. I was interested in taking a look after I heard that they recently switched the backend to Drupal. It was a great endorsement for the open source community.

The other thing I like about the site is the amount of video it features. I was actually a bit surprised at the amount of video available. They post something nearly every day. I particularity liked a video about the Marine who serves as a doorman in the West Wing. I had no idea that there was someone with such a job. The piece was well put together, and gives a glimpse into White House life; something I really appreciate, having never had the opportunity to visit the White House.
