We’ve been working hard on producing version 1.1 of the Joomla SEO eBook and in the meantime have a new edition to announce – its now available in Hungarian.
Jozsef Tamas Herczeg from Joomlandia.eu, along with Annamaria Ban, have just launched JoomlaSEO.hu with tips and tricks for Joomla SEO in Hungarian. You can order their translation here.
Other translations are currently in progress, and if you’re interested in translating the book, please feel free to contact us.
I’ve always been pretty cynical about the 2006 launch of .mobi.
My strategy for domain investing has long been “.com and the main extensions of countries you know well”. I did buy half-a-dozen .mobi domains when they came out but have remained a pessimist since then. It seemed like a textbook example of pump-and-dump, with people hoping to sell keyword domains for a high price, before the inevitable collapse.
Well, I’m prepared to admit for the first time that .mobi may actually have a chance. When I logged into to my Bank of America account this morning I saw a big advertisement for their online banking. The domain name was bofa.mobi. No alternatives. No use of bofa.com/mobi or mobi.bofa.com
It is possible that Bank of America may remain lonely in their use of .mobi and their experiment with the extension may not last long, but equally it is undeniably true that the outlook for .mobi is much brighter than it was yesterday.

Why on earth is a major company such as WebProNews.com continually allowed to get away with email spam?
They have a very sneaky way of making people think they’re unsubscribing, while in fact remaining on WebProNews’ mailing lists indefinitely.
Joomla had a problem. It used to be a Content Management System with very rigid content management. Section >> Content >> Article. That was it. No flexibility. No way to change that default heirarchy.? And then, all of a sudden, almost without anyone noticing, the problem was solved.

Its almost common place now to say that newspapers are finished and that all they can look forward to is eeking out a living online, while their paper edition die a slow death.
This is true for most newspapers and in Britain there’s only one newspaper that has consistently been able to overcome the negative predictions.
In late 2003, the Indpendent was a struggling newspaper. It ranked almost last in popularity? among the Britain’s dozen major newspapers. It was then that it made the brave decision to move from being a broadsheet to being a tabloid. Every day the frontpage features a single image or photo trying to grab the readers attention. Some worked and some didn’t but many were little masterpieces of graphic design. 3 1/2 years later it is selling 15.5 per cent more than it did back in September 2003.
While their reporting is good and has won several awards, its their cover photos that really make the Independent stand out. Today, we take a look back at some of the very best graphic design examples from the Independent frontpage over the last 18 months:
