Been playing with it all day. Love the community features.

I have the same concern as I did with Expression Engine - no obvious hierarchical page structure. People are used to seeing hierarchy - for example an intranet (the project I'm moving towards rebuilding in Drupal) might have sections like:

Code:
human resources -> medical insurance -> dental insurance -> company policies marketing -> brand identity -> photo collections -> resources
And so on.

How is this sort of thing achieved in Drupal? Taxonomy module?

It takes some getting used to, but these seem to be wise words:

Hence, programmers/developers who first encounter Drupal are often confused with the way Drupal handles content. This is because Drupal puts the content at the center of the CMS while traditional CMS put structure first and the content last. The way traditional CMS treated content and structure eventually became its limitation: if you first define the structure, then you are more or less locked within the confines of this structure.
