Grupo Multimedios is a local TV and Radio company, covering most of the north-east region of México with 34 radio stations on 15 cities and 12 TV channels in 11 cities. The group also owns a national newspapaper, Milenio and it´s TV counterpart, and a collection of restaurants, malls and amusement parks and zoos.

I came to Multimedios as part of the new On-Line strategy, and they wanted to refresh and rebuild all of their websites using Drupal.

At the time I didn't know about Drupal, but I picked it up really well, and in September 07 we launched our first site: multimedios.tv complete with tv ads and a great ad sales campaing.

After this, a number of projects followed, each with it's own challenges and requirements, and for extremely different mediums and audience.

One of the highlights of this period are the development of the cck_ooyala module, integrating Ooyala video hosting and streaming services into Drupal. Ooyala blog

With over 10 sites built during this period (some of them not online), and collaboration and management provided for 10 more, this has been a very busy time and I have experienced a very fast enviroment with completely different requirements and clients.
