How the web is built - Static html vs the CMS
The folks over at W3Techs.com have released an interesting study on the distribution of web development styles.
A whopping 76% of websites are still not using a popular CMS. This doesn't necessarily mean that they are static sites... many could be dynamic - using PHP or another tool... but only 24% are using a recognizable content management system like Joomla or WordPress.
OSTraining Offers FREE Classes to Schools
This is a pretty cool!
Here's part of their announcement:
That landmark coincided with the holiday season so we celebrated by giving back: we held a free class for 16 non-profit organizations in Atlanta.
Fast forward almost a year and last week we hit another milestone: 200 live classes! Those Joomla and Drupal classes were held all across North America and England, from Los Angeles to London and from Vancouver to Miami.
This year's landmark also coincided with the holiday season and so we've decided to give back again, only bigger and better:
We're Featured!
One of the things we're passionate about is training. Yes, we're an internet marketing/web design company... but Rod loves to teach. He's just finished his 115th online training video for OSTraining.com. The topic of this video was JCalPro - a calendar component for Joomla (view the tutorials).

As we come to this holiday season, we recognize that while it has been a difficult year for many, we are truly blessed none-the-less. We would like to take a moment to say thank you for your friendship, business and continued trust in us.
While 2009 was a great year, we're anticipating that 2010 will be even better. We're rolling out some new tools early in the year to help you with your sites, we're just completing a 50 lesson online tutorial for Joomla and lots more (details to come in the new year)...
But for now, THANK YOU, and we wish you a prosperous and happy New Year.
The International Foundation for Cultural Property Protection chose NavigateTomorrow for two of their most important projects in years.
Open Source Content Management Systems (OSCMS) are gaining a lot of traction for small to large businesses and even governments (both the city of Chicago and the U.N. use Joomla! in a few of their sites).
This article from webreference.com gives a pretty good overview of the big three - WordPress, Joomla! and Drupal. Interesting to note that Joomla took less time, less custom code and had a smaller file size than the other two... (we use Joomla! a lot here at NavigateTomorrow).
