This being the first post, I'll be quick and just welcome everyone to whyjoomla? !  As this is the only blog we're maintaining at design guru, its been an exciting week preparing to launch because I finally get to blabber on about all the cool things you can do with joomla - my favourite CMS

Ah, and no first blog post would be complete without a bring-us-upto-speed post eh?  Here goes, some recent news for y'all...

Joomla 1.0.11 is out - this security release is extremely important to upgrade to... we've seen a number of sites get smacked with the weirdest little problems lately and it seems that security holes might've been the reason - nonetheless, the core development team were prompt to release this great patch/upgrade!

Joomla is now 1 year old!  That's right, it sounds young but remember, Joomla's a fork of the Mambo project - which has been around since about 2000 ... so I suppose Joomla is really 6 years old! Shocking... especially since in just this past year's there have been over 2.5 million downloads of it!

Whats the Fuss?
written by Azzam, September 12, 2006

Joomla rocks no doubt. But I feel some guidance is needed. People are not optimizing the full potential, so I hope you can contribute to filling this gap. So far so good, keep it up

Great idea !
