One reason for WP rise is with people with zero budget.
It is very easy to use, but also very limited in scope and abilities.
Joomla is beginning to become a frustration.
But if you have complaints, then go and fix them.

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 <http://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 <http://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.

Hope to see everyone on Thursday.
All best,
Steve
