Google Real-time search is a fact!

The printing press changed the communication from one-to-one to one-to-many. The web brings it to many-to-many. Google has real-time search . We can make a strong point stating that Google has 11 years of experience with ranking based on relevance, not just based on sort-by-date. To get to real-time search, you’ll click the “Show options” link above the search results. Then you’ll see a “Latest” option.

Joomla and Drupal

What is their status?

In this chart from: www.alledia.com we can  see that both projects have moved forward but neither one has really changed to much it's own goals. * Joomla is still more user-friendly with a more active developer and designer community, but less extensible and documentated * Drupal is absolutely more Open (GPL like), still more flexible and developer-friendly with a more coherent and stable community.
