Something Today

Today is a holiday coz of Vinayaka Chavithi. "Happy Vinayaka Chavithi" to all who celebrate it. Attended a workshop on joomla. It was quite informative and is given by Mark from fboat.org at the India Campus Crusade For Christ. Had a tough time figuring out the address. First went to the proper campus but some one there gave us a wrong information that its not there and so we went to another campus and again was directed to the old one so was driving for a total of 2 hrs. Good that we could reach on time even after a delay of 1 hour :). 

The session was quite informative and useful at least for me. So now planning to move one of my sites to joomla. With direct hands on during the training with proper material gave a good experience for us by the end of day. 

And one more interesting thing for today is the ‘Google Chrome’ the google browser. Naturally being a fan of Google I liked it. Though I found issues with embedded objects I think I can live with them and still use the simple and faster interface that they are providing. 

Now from Mozilla to Google Chrome :) (I still support and prefer Mozilla for it is one of the best in Open Source, but only after Chrome now) Well it has quite good features and most of the code is third party including the Mozilla and Safari engines and the I wonder how they could manage to get the browser faster still by using all the third party components. No statistics as of now but I read some where it is 3 times faster than the IE. Will have to wait for the statistics and see what it is up to. I know it will live to the expectations.. Too much of confidence huh? Well I like it that much. 

And now successfully 3 months completed after applying for BSNL connection for net and is still waiting :( Hope I will get it soon. That’s what they say when ever I call them.  

Well that’s all for now. Need to rest for day I think.

CMS ??

Was a bit puzzled all these days what these CMS (Content Management Systems) are up to and what all they can provide, also as I always wanted each detail to be my design, so I haven't looked at them till now. But at last made up my mind to look and see what I can do with them and how much can I customize. So started to work on them today. Got a head ache and noting else. But they look to be powerful and are capable of doing many things which I may not be interested in using but hope it will be of some use. Evaluating Joomla and Drupal which I will remove later. Drupal is better and more 'non understandable' (complex :D) but going by the reviews looks like I will have to use that only. Hope I will learn something and get it working asap on a live site :. Still at office to take a conf call at 8:30 pm. Waiting to finish that and go home soon ……..
