to understand joomla we first need to look at the past
in sept 2005 20 people took some software called mambo and created something called joomlathats me in the back row - younger and without the grey hair
all around the world
joomla is a swahili word that means all together just 4 hits
we were not a company or even a group of friends we were just a group of people who shared a common vision to produce some software for creating websites. BUT its much more than that we had three aims
those were high ideals but what did they really mean
those were high ideals but what did they really mean
those were high ideals but what did they really mean
sites you have created 3 minutes
so those were some of the great web sites you have created with joomla
from the official site but that doesnt include fantastico etc or multiple installs
shold be 65 but i never finished my klingon translation see i told you i was a geek
joomla is extendable and fully customisable its all up to you
over 180 user groups joomladay events like this take place all over the world. i should know i’ve been to many of them
if usergroups arent your think we have our own community site to meet people online built with jomsocial more about this this afternoon almost 6000 members in just a few months
a fairly new initiative and so much more
remember that google screenshot with 3 hits. now look at it joomla now powers over 2.5% of all the web sites on the net
i cant look into my crystal ball and tell you
coming soon more about this tomorrow/later
The future is up to you!!!
the future is what you make of it get involved translations, user groups, write extensions, create templates
thats all - time up
