Hi Gang, Hope everyone is enjoying the weekend.
I want to remind everyone that at 6:30 PM on Thursday, August 11th, the monthly Joomla NYC User Group meeting will take place at our new meeting room at Lincoln Center, 146 West 65th Street. (For detailed directions, visit www.joomlanyc.org ) Scott Wolpow will discuss wire frames and the best methods to layout websites before you start building. I will present two Joomla templates - Construct and LessJoomla - that work with every screen from smart phones to jumbo television LCDs. I also have copies of Stephen Burge's new book, Joomla <explained> and Barry North's Joomla 1.6: A User's Guide. We also need to remind everyone that Joomla Day Weekend is coming up soon - October 22 and 23. To take advantage of the $15 per ticket discount, you must register before Sept. 1. So if you haven't registered yet, think about doing it soon. For information and registration, visit www.joomladaynyc.com And if you have registered, you should visit the website because there is recently updated information about the tracks and speakers. On other Joomla matters, I recently stumbled across an article, "How WordPress Beat Joomla" on Weblog Tools Collection, a website devoted to WordPress. The author, an Australian website designer, doesn't trash Joomla, but he mentions how WordPress was able to make quick changes that helped boost its popularity. I don't completely agree with him, especially the part where bases CMS popularity on Google searches, but he brings up some interesting points. http://weblogtoolscollection.com/archives/2011/08/05/how-wordpress-beat-joomla/ Hope to see everyone on Thursday. All best, Steve -- Stephen Britton Technology Consultant [email protected] ph: 914-661-0040
