What is Drupal?

Drupal is a free, open-source and very extensible Content Management Framework. Put simply, you use it to build websites. A simple website can be up and running in a few minutes. Alternatively, you can develop a completely customised, and very complex site using the Drupal framework depending on what you need. Drupal is like a construction set. You can follow the instructions to build a stool quickly, or you can build a skyscraper!

Check out http://drupal.org/getting-started for you're burning to get started, or simply want some more indepth knowledge.
