Notes:
Lynda.com has tutorial videos on Drupal and every Stanford Employee gets discounts, but may be too techie for some.
Wordpress or Joomla vs. Drupal: Wordpress is used at Stanford and is mainly for blogging, but the more features you want to add, the more Drupal becomes desirable. Drupal is better than Joomla in that it's more flexible.
