I note, with pleasure, that you're using Joomla for your new site. I'm a big fan, obviously.

Yes, the more I use it, the more I like it. A slightly steeper learning curve than WordPress or Blogware, but I think it's worth the effort. I especially like the third-party components and modules out there. Still learning, but so far, so good. If you see something on the site that's misconfigured or still using the example text, please let me know!

Google might as well sell Christmas Trees! Why domain names? Ain't it winning enough out of advertising? Does Google want to overcome the market and have majority?
