You may have been lucky enough to have seen this presentation live in The Netherlands or Germany or even listened to it at slideshare but now you can watch the presentation in all it's glory.
Thanks to my cameraman Fotis Evangelou the entire presentation is now here for you to enjoy.
It's 31 minutes of pure entertainment - I hope you enjoy it as much as those who saw it live.
I was getting my mp3 player ready for my summer holiday today, yes a very late summer holiday, when I heard a favourite old song by Helen Reddy from the 70's.
Somehow it just seemed to be very appropriate if you change just one word.
Whilst I was travelling home from Joomla!Day Germany I started thinking about how long it was taking me and was the journey worthwhile. The answer was "not that long" and "yes definitely".
Then I started wondering if my journey was amongst the longest and I quickly realised that because I was flying and others even inside Germany were driving then it wasn't.
Can you tell where I'm going with this?
OK, I admit it it, I just don't get why you would want to integrate these two applications.
I just can't see where the benefits are.
... the sad but true story of a developer who stole from another developer and got caught.
If you ask two chefs to write a recipe for roast chicken you will get two different recipes but the chicken "might" taste similar.
If you ask two artists to paint your portrait you will get two different paintings but they will "look" similar.
If you ask two joomla developers to create a basic weather module you will get two different modules but they will both "show" the weather.
Or so you might think.
This is a question that I've pondered for a long time and this is about the fourth time I have sat down to write.
Joomla is rightly very proud of the number of languages that it is available in, there cannot be many Open source projects that offer the same range, almost 60 at the last count.
Yet joomla.org is exclusively in English.
Exactly four years ago, on the 16th September 2005, Joomla 1.0 was released.
Happy Birthday!!
Have a slice of cake!!
Every day I read and hear a lot about SEO (Search Engine Optimisation) and SEF (Search Engine Friendly) urls.
For me the number one question is "are the urls HEF (Human Ear Friendly)?"
Of course he does. If he still has time to use the net then it's a fairly safe bet that at some point he will visit a joomla powered web site.
With Joomla being used by the UN, National Governments, leading NPO's and US Senators and Governors he surely must.
But that isn't what this blog post is really all about or why there is a photo of lion accompanying this blog post.
