Joomla

If you ever need to build your own website and tools like wikis and blogs won’t do, try Joomla.  Joomla allows users to build, develop and maintain their own website, even if they have little or no experience or knowledge of doing so. Joomla’s easy to use site does most of the work for you. Some more information from the Joomla website:

What is Joomla?

Joomla is an award-winning content management system (CMS), which enables you to build Web sites and powerful online applications. Many aspects, including its ease-of-use and extensibility, have made Joomla the most popular Web site software available. Best of all, Joomla is an open source solution that is freely available to everyone.

 What’s a content management system (CMS)?

A content management system is software that keeps track of every piece of content on your Web site, much like your local public library keeps track of books and stores them. Content can be simple text, photos, music, video, documents, or just about anything you can think of. A major advantage of using a CMS is that it requires almost no technical skill or knowledge to manage. Since the CMS manages all your content, you don’t have to.
