One of the most common challenges with multiple-site web architectures is determining the right level of interaction between the sites. In particular, one of the most common requirements is for some kind of content sharing. The problem with "content sharing" is that it is usually given as a pretty vague requirement at first. It's like a home storage problem - you could be talking about building a second floor on your house, putting up a shed in the backyard, or buying a storage bin from IKEA. Here, I'll try to distill some of the issues and get you asking the right questions when you encounter the problem of content sharing across multiple websites within a web architecture.

Publishing always has been a highly competitive industry. Indeed, “getting the scoop” was a hotly contested goal of journalists everywhere. But the web and mobile devices have diversified readers and created new ways in which users can engage with content. It’s made “getting the scoop” something an everyday citizen can accomplish thanks to tools like Twitter.

For years, publishers have been moving in droves from high cost, proprietary or hand-built CMS systems to open source. Lately, it's been happing at an extraordinary rate. Their frustration with deploying flexible, revenue-driven products to their bloated and rigid CMS platforms has finally reached a tipping point. Drupal is now filling a gap in the publishing industry that is undeniable.

The built-in content list provided by Drupal does a few basic things well, allowing you to filter by taxonomy term, status, and node type. However, in cases where you have a large volume of content or a lot of custom CCK fields, this doesn't quite cut it. With the Content Management Filter module, the possibilities are endless.

In a web based world that values fresh, meaningful content (sometimes over substance or relevance) it can actually be detrimental to “force” people to contribute to your site.

For several years, you heard “content is king” from the lips of every web marketeer. Then, there seemed to be a backlash. Websites trended towards flash and visual pieces. But like most things, the pendulum has swung back…quality information and news content again reigns supreme.
