Wow has it really been four years since Peter Russell and I sat down and wrote the press release that announced the birth of Joomla!.
So much has changed since then and yet so much is still the same.
Happy Birthday and congratulations to everyone who was there on that day, September 1st 2005.
In 2006 Johan and myself celebrated the first bithday with a cake and a candle at the first Joomla!Day in the UK.
Will you be celebrating today or perhaps having a JUG (Joomla User Group) party?

How many joomla sites are there in the world?
