Learning about the power of Joomla
Written by Don Watkins   
Monday, 26 November 2007
I've been doing a lot of learning in the past few days and it is paying off on this website. I'm learning more and more about how to configure Joomla. Tonight I learned how to have an IFrame on the site. Joomla is a great content manager and I'm very impressed with how easy it is to use. I've added two more open source applications to my hosted apps. One is Moodle , the other is my recreated Wordpress blog . Both of these have their own separate URL but they also can be accessed from the menu bar at left. Select Blogs and you'll see one site in a submenu. The other site is under "Learning Center."

New Look Website

This past week I attended the 2007 NYSCATE Conference in Rochester, New York. One of the best presentations I attended involved a fifth grade teacher from Wells Central School District describing his experience with Joomla as a content manager. Stephen O'Connor spent nearly an hour describing not only his experience and enthusiasm for Joomla but also the webhosting provider.

I had been with another Linux host provider and generally speaking I had been happy with them. I got reliable service at a good price. Just this week following the presentation I attended in Rochester I decided to follow the lead of Mr. O'Connor and switch to Hostgator.com

Hostgator has great tools. They use CPanel 11 and Fantastico Deluxe which together gave me a great deal more opportunities to deploy a great website. Hostgator has way more services than my previous host and at about the same price per year.   With Hostgator I can deploy literally dozens of open source software packages that include Wordpress, Drupal, Joomla, PhPList, GeekLog and many more.
