Australian Prime Minister using Drupal
The website of Kevin Michael Rudd, the Prime Minister of Australia is using Drupal: see http://www.pm.gov.au. Go Aussies!
Australian Broadcasting Corporation using Drupal
The Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC) started using Drupal for a number of properties like ABC Digital Music, ABC Country and ABC Jazz.
The ABC is Australia's national broadcaster, a public owned enterprise funded by the Australian government that has been around for 80 years.
It's really great to see the Drupal market in Australia breaking open! One day I should make it to Australia too. ;-)
Sanyo using Drupal
Sanyo, the Fortune 500 electronics company, used Drupal to build a nice product catalog website at http://www.sanyo.com.au. The site went live earlier this week and features 250 products in 30 categories with over one GB of PDF files. More functionality is being added iteratively.
It sounds like they would be an ideal candidate for Acquia's upcoming hosted search service which will be able to search PDF documents as well as regular Drupal content. According to Luke Schreur from Tequila Digital Australia, the company responsible for the implementation, CCK was the most important module for this project. Luke said that they are already deploying Drupal for other clients and that more programmers at Tequila Digital are getting into Drupal. Great!
