Understanding Drupal, the first in The Lullabot Learning Series, the Lullabot team provides an overview of Drupal as a content management system, as a PHP web application framework, and as a developer community. Its documentary-style exploration covers all the terminology and fundamental concepts for both site administrators and developers. If you’ve ever been confused by Drupal or are still trying to wrap your head around the community and platform, then this video is a roadmap to accelerate your journey up the Drupal learning curve.
Topics include:
How content is entered and managed
How users and user permissions are handled
What blocks are and what they can do
The concepts and capabilities of Drupal’s powerful module system
How Drupal handles navigation and its menu system
How themes alter the site layout, design, and presentation
Site configuration and administrative messages and settings

This is NOT a tutorial.
Did it qualify as an introduction? Yes, I suppose. The advertisement said "This video uses Drupal 6 for examples, however it is more focused on general Drupal concepts rather than version-specific how-tos." There were, in fact, no how-tos." If you replace the word "examples" with "screen shots" you would be more accurate. True, this video was a discussion of concepts but it was not instructional in any way. It looked more like an example of what you can accomplish with Mac iMovie than Drupal.
Frankly I feel like I just spent $30.00 for nothing.
