Joomla? Time to take another look
It’s been a long time since I’ve even considered anything other than WordPress as a platform for my website. However I am looking at the new Joomla 1.5 and have noted that they claim they have simplified the administration interface. This is great news to me, I hated their old interface, it was difficult to understand, however Joomla itself was an amazing CMS.
WordPress seems a lot easier to understand to me, but maybe it’s just my comfort zone now. Joomla had some really good points, it’s templates were way more professional looking in most cases, or at least as I remember it, they had a much more polished selection.
Joomla had many of the features of WordPress long ago, but I just couldn’t get past the difficulty of the administration interface. But when WordPress updated to WordPress 2.7 I was amazed at the improvements in the administration interface, so I updated ALL of my installations to WordPress 2.7.
However, my friend Justin Williams from Brookshire Networks has told me that the administration has improved, and indeed the website confirms the same so I will be taking it for a test drive on one of my new projects that I haven’t planned out yet… :-/

8 Ways to Keep a Small Niche Site from Dying or Becoming Unsellable
Matt from Take More Risks had a bit to say about a topic I’d been planning on writing about. So instead of doing the research to write my own, or re-writing his article I opted to point you toward his blog. He is an excellent writer and for those of you that are struggling to make it on the internet, he is a source of inspiration because he puts his thoughts out there in a way you don’t get from following John Chow.
Hacker: Obama’s ‘spy-proof’ blackberry can be breached
Obama’s ‘spy-proof’ blackberry can be breached, says world’s most famous hacker
Washington, February 14 : While U.S. President Barack Obama’s blackberry has been claimed to be a spy-proof device, the world’s most famous hacker Kevin Mitnick says that it can still be breached.
“It’s a long shot, but it’s possible. You’d probably need to be pretty sophisticated, but there’s people out there who are,” Fox News quoted Mitnick as saying.
Mitnick served nearly five years in prison after pleading guilty to charges of wire and computer fraud for hacking into computer systems at some of the country’s largest cell-phone and computer companies during the 1990s, and he presently heads Mitnick Security Consulting.
“If I was the attacker, I would look to Obama’s close circle of friends, family and associates and try to compromise their machines at home. The objective would be to get Obama’s e-mail address on the BlackBerry,” Mitnick said.
He said that hackers might target a person with access to Obama because their networks would be much less secure than those used by the commander-in-chief.
Mitnick added that upon being armed with Obama’s coveted e-mail address, any hacker might send an e-mail to Obama in an attempt to lure him to a Web site that had previously been breached in order to transfer “malicious code”.
He, however, warned any potential hacker to consider the consequences before acting.
“The government would go after them full force,” he said.
Obama administration officials declined to comment on the issue.
