Drupal is task based and divided into five administrative areas.

Content management (http://drupal.org/node/627332)
Manage your site's content. Most anything to do with content itself will be here.

Site Building
Control how your site looks and feels. Here you make structure changes to your sites look and feel.

Site Configuration
Adjust basic site configuration options. Adjust and configure site behavior, name, email settings, cache, date and time, etc.

Drupal vs the world

DRUPAL VS WORDPRESS

The biggest difference between WordPress and Drupal, is that Drupal is a Content Management System, and WordPress is a "blog engine". This means Drupal assumes that there will be many different kinds of users with various levels of control who are administering a website, and WordPress assumes there will be only one.

Single Person / Group Blog or Blog Driven Websites Use WordPress
