Website Made Easy with Joomla; Start your website today

The explosive advancement of Technological innovations and the globalization of our connected world can be overwhelming to comprehend sometimes. For ferocious readers, modest self-learnt individual or a newb on a webpage creation track, without properly harnessed and structured information and know-how, things can get quite slow, frustrating and discomforting for content management and many other things. That's why I've chosen to address this by showing anyone who desires the best, invariably Everyone on the globe. YES, you deserve it. Before diving into the cores, let's me wet your appetite as you'll be left with ONLY solutions after this article - Emptied of worries, subpar options, and served by the best product as a recommendation.

Depending on what age bracket you fit into, one unwavering constant among all is the influx of ideas, execution of tasks, initiation of projects and exposure to data and information. Dependent on those variables and happening is the recreation, reproduction, evolution, sadly, falsification or untrue data and information falls into the mix.

Creating data and storing knowledge, ideas, and procedures and documentation as well as showcasing the executions of understanding spans throughout the human life. These occurrences are as ancient as the Big Bang and invariably, before the documentation of life on Earth itself. It's a reflection of life to manipulate information either using or updating.

I have no doubt you are reading this article before you need fluorescents on your path to creating a website and using the best, usable and most appropriate tool. Now, certainly, your wandering has met with your success happenstance regarding your quest for a great Website, and the right tools as well as the advantages you enjoy with this recommendation: Joomla - an award-winning website builder.

As a computer scientist, I must admit being ignorant and just a little too knuckleheaded for a while with my omission by choice for CMS. Looking at Joomla yesteryears since I first heard of it, and now being an evangelist of Joomla, I wish turning the hands of time is in fact, more than an expression.

Let me explain, Young and motivated by trials, I preferred to hand code my projects and write my own libraries thereby, re-engineering the wheels by wasting time but building capacity. Even as a computer scientist, I can tell you today, it was an ineffective trail back then as I match the productivity, times and depth of expertise in display in Joomla CMS against my hackathons as a young scientist. Therefore, I can boldly say, you don't have to go the folly route, hand code your functionalities and invest enormous and priceless time into wheels that exist well and better than you can think of already. Try Joomla, a perfect rise, and shine website system. In the next paragraphs, I would dive straight into all that's necessary for the operation, benefits of Joomla CMS and leave the lexicons and colloquial for the next writing.

Chances are that if you are new to the technological world, in this case, I mean Website development and/or Content publishing/publication online, I would need to walk you through some things. Now, the beauty in the beast here is that this article would be tailored towards CMS and Joomla. It means you have been exempted from the confusions a typical computer science or information technology student/graduate needs to deal with it. Congratulation, completely courteous of Joomla CMS.

Do you need a website created in a short time? Do you really need it to be properly organized without having to write computer language (markups/codes)? Are you targeting a large or small audience with your website? Do you want to have it accessed all over the world and remain accessible? The only answer that offers you all that, with security and way more things you can't remember now? Joomla CMS is the ANSWER.

I'd assumed at an earlier paragraph that you(reader) might be new to development or publishing online, for this reason, if you saw this repeated term "CMS" behind Joomla or mentioned alone previously, let me explain that. Actually, that's your first reason to celebrate. CMS means Content Management System. It's simply what gets all those things on your mind and drawing board, stores it and helps you save it, display it and keep it for you. Now, you don't have to do all the complex things a Computer Science (CS) students would have the ability to do. What the CMS does is everything you could have needed to acquire in skill but now, simplified and given to you at the price of a few clicks and drags(in most cases). Of course, you still need to input the content on your mind, as CMSs are no magic or mind readers. If you could understand this paragraph, then I would go a little further with a more detailed and giving fairly understandable terms of the terrain. Don't worry, I wouldn't confuse you with computer language - I promise "Strictly English in its plainest form"

Three (3) phrases would give a good jumpstart course here: Content Management, Content Management System (CMS) and Joomla CMS.

Content Management is the most literal of the trio; It's as it reads. (It takes your contents from your fingers as you type and your preferred options based on what you input.) Basically, these are the underline activities and use cases. (Creating, Editing, Publishing, Administrating and Displaying) are clearly are encompassed within the management of content.

Just in case you were about asking who does all these many things especially the Publishing and Administrating and Viewing channeling. It wouldn't be you for the sake of peace, time and comfort. A system has been invented to handle that. If you were to guess, I bet you are correct. Yes! That system is what we call Content Management System (CMS)

Yes, at this point, you have a fair grip and understand of why you need a CMS over learning traditional method which requires writing computer codes and using technologies such as markup language (html, Xhtml), scripting language or native computer languages.

Creating an advantage over other CMS would be to turn the knobs up by a couple of shaft on the traditional layout and frame of what a CMS should be. But No, Joomla go completely boundless and outperforms other CMS by an infinite mileage. For the fairness of the product, I would list some of the advantages Joomla has over other CMSs (Competitors).  It wouldn't hurt if  I tell you some history, integrate capabilities and pioneering strength that Joomla brings to the ecosystem of website development.

At this point, you are convinced CMS would solve your problems. That's why this session of this article is going to tell you why Joomla leads the pack and second to known. Which is the second reason to celebrate.

Joomla has been in this business since 2005 solving problems regarding content management. I mention this because it's as relevant as every other detail. The years of experience can't be traded or compensated for in her competitors. In lame terms, Information technology is very vast and after a lot of researches, observation, and proofs, it's been discovered that when large and a numerous number of people work on a project to make it better, is far effective, efficient and more usable for a long continuous time. What I have just mentioned is called Open source.

It's the idea that as many knowledgeable people around the world can notice a problem(bug), solve it or mention it to a group of people to get it solved. Hereby, producing better capabilities and support from more people than a traditional work scheme or any organization can afford to employ, pay salaries and keep them active. Joomla is subjected infinitely to improvement, controlled modification, and better security because of this variable as well as the large community of users (both developers and consumers).

I believe a couple of terms might have come up making your head spin as you are new to this environment, perhaps, you can't wait to finish reading this article in other to join the Joomla community for support as well as become a member/user of Joomla CMS. The truth remains that the advantages Joomla CMS bring to the world of Content management is innumerable. Open source, long-term support (Semantic Versioning Scheme), Access control list (ACL), Enhance security - which is the biggest bet for everyone. Joomla prioritizes all these functionalities nevertheless, providing a proper documentation and guides to a lot of its product.

Less I forget, Joomla supports tagging, content versioning (highlight), password hashing and Microdata. You wouldn't know its full power until you get onboard with the invincible team; Joomla CMS.

Direction of NoWhere

Once again is a coin with many sides yet landing on the Head or Tail each time - Our spinning World. Whether you're Happily living it, passively watching by or analyzing the imbalances of the contours at will. You've been mobilized already and with the least possible requirements, a candidate of Earth moving in the direction of NOWhere. Pick up your tag as a function of your next breath.

From the scars of 28 June 1914 (First War World) to the Civil Right Acts of 1964 (End of Public Segregation in the USA), the radicalism and division of Religion, belief and race. Yet the infallible movement of mankind steady towards the unending adventure in the Direction of NoWhere. Few moments of silence heralding calmness and fewer headlines protesting betterment might get you outfoxed in the idea of union. The world of mankind in time always validate its all boondoggle, the cardinal point of these populace faces NoWhere.

Did you hear the revolts? Have you seen the hashtags? I bet the jugular wouldn't be missed by a Planck. You've had it enough the Feminist say "No more flight, Now it's fight". I must say their feet are down and firmly it's holding even stronger by the day. My curiosity is majorly factored at what the kill shall be used for. Just before you slice me open from your global reach, I'm on your side. I believe it's a product and reaction to the decade, centuries and millenniums of being wrongly treated, marginalized, subjugated and abusive with the gestures of No repentance that's lead to this location. Still in the direction of NoWhere if I may say.

Without reference to the outcome every action nor objecting the grounds constantly covered. Woe unto thee of such thoughts. Birds still shriek, Babies still Blubber, Boo still Rock. My dishearting appraisal yet remains that after all the grains, coins and estates are grossed in, NOW and HERE, my unreserved conclusion say its all propagated at NoWhere. And my friend, that's the trail the World is on with all sincerity.

As chivalry and gesture of kindness towards the Female gender are widely rejected and dressed as mischevious, primitive and in fact insulting. One is left with the grueling thoughts of the potential outcome of versions of this revolt for pain and untold stories. Let's all pretend I didn't say that: No pain, no untold stories. This we can quote that: Understanding of difference is Wisdom. And wisdom being non-inherit but skillful and consciously virtued.

Nobel race and stronger vessel you called yourself, the wrath of your actions are loaded and multiplied. Hold on strong as the weakened vessel rise to the occasion and send you into dushes you dug. Now, the pendulums of adjustment would have been recommended but since the polarity of the occupant is towards NoWhere, understanding wouldn't find roots within the obvious. Painfully, we are just in the direction of NoWhere even HERE.

Who Lied?

          Personally, i think there are lot of things you enjoy and appreciate as a result of association, friendship or relationship. For me, one of the things I enjoy most as a Christian is that chat and moment when you talk and chat with the holy spirit. I really don't seem to know why i enjoy it so much and then some people try to make him look like someone so far away, someone who is waiting to hit you at every junction. Anyway, my point is I have so much fun with him and I really don't know if its because of my personality ( I LOVE HUMOUR), maybe holy spirit is humorous too.
        
          Here is the gist, if you ever scrolled through the Bible for more than 20 minutes or listened to religious teachings from one source or the other, the fall of Man wouldn't sound absolutely strange to your hearings, in fact to your earrings too (winks). Here is the fun part and hopefully this document or blog doesn't fall into the hands of a "Phd Spiritual Student" who has mastered the skills of fellowship with God and relationship with God and can even quote the remaining part of Revelation 23 (haha). 
     
           Down to the story now, i hear the Devil saying everyday in the city of earth " Who Lied ?" and am very very serious here. Every blessed day (don't check your calendar cos all days are blessed). Let's start with my father or your father or the Father of Creation or whatever you call him Adam God. I have a feeling his Surname was God (don't laugh). Yes! Adam the husband of Eve, Adam the main man in Genesis 2 vs 25 (the naked but shameless man).

          Now, when God arrived in the garden, they ended up running and hiding like He(God) didn't know before time; they flopped. This is the intriguing conversation;

 GOD: Adam mi, where you dey oooo?
 GOD: Abi this people don go pluck fruit ni?
(40 seconds later)
 GOD: Adammmmu, where art thou now?
(Adam talking with Eve)
ADAM : You see what you have done now abi?
EVE : What's it now? Did i force you or did i open your mouth ni?
ADAM : ehhh ehhhh!!! Okay, i would answer Him(GOD) now and you will see what i will do.
(06 seconds later)
GOD: Adam!!!
ADAM : Yes Lord /Oga on top am here Sir!
GOD: Where are you?
ADAM: Ah, God i heard your voice and i had to go arrange myself oooo.
GOD: WHAT!!! DID YOU EAT THE FRUIT I SAID YOU SHOULDN'T?
(Adam talking with Eve)
ADAM: ehh! ehh!! I will show you now who i am. You! You!! You had the Guts to say "What's it now? Did i force you or did i open your mouth ni?"
EVE: Answer God, he is talking to you jor and do whatever you wanna do jor.
(Adam talking with God)
GOD: I SAID DID YOU EAT THE FRUIT I SAID YOU SHOULDN'T?
ADAM: (NOT EXACTLY)- It's the woman you gave me oo/ Na the woman wey you give me ooo
(GOD talking with Eve)
GOD: Eve, what happened?
 EVE: Yes i did but it's because the serpent deceived me. 

           Oh! That Adam (Mtchew! that Adam that led to the introduction of clothes and i need to spend money on cloth. Mtchew! once again Mtchew!). Well, sorry if that's what you feel but this is what i see clearly. The conversation pretty ended there and God dished out his punishment  because he is MASTER of all things. I say that because mankind had began a permutation game on the Almighty there and if the conversation extended to the serpent, it would probably have a reason too.

         Now, i know i have abused our friendship by making you read so much without much of the main subject matter but hang on please, am saving the best for the last. Scientist tell us how much threat the earth is faced with by the fast degrading Ozone layer and most industries or reasonable industries are migrating to green technology or whatever you call it - its shall green something. Our society is equally fast degrading but we are not swift to upgrade ooooo. You only need to tune to a news station and you would justify my last statement.
   
        The conversation would have ended with the serpent talking about it been told by Eve that they would die but he was sure they wouldn't die and in fact, probably would have said " God, here i present to you Mr and Mrs Adam God" still living after disobedience or after the fruit. The story here is not the humour i have professed all day long, it's rather the ratting of the Devil in the affairs of man saying "Who Lied?". 

        At least, they didn't die - sorry Mr Man because Death doesn't mean you have a tomb and your name craved somewhere. At least, pornography is not sex before marriage -sorry Mrs Woman you are playing with fire. At least, the government allows it - sorry Mr Rationalist, every man would answer alone on the judgement day. At least, you still hear God - sorry Mrs Backslider, you will start hearing mixed voice.
At least, its logical - sorry Mr Natural Man, you cant fathom God out with your mind, its too small. At least, i can drink some alcohol - sorry Mr Just A Little Sin, Addiction doesn't have a special Cloth. 

       Eventually, you would discover only few people would meet the Devil with two(2) horns as pictorially painted because he is on the street say "Who Lied" and with a lovely accent and perfect dentition from nations to nations. And just for the record on the Judgement day (which would come), he would still say to God " Who Lied? Who Fornicated? Who Killed? Who Steals?" because he's master his craft. 
    
     The good news is that Grace is available in the name of Jesus over all your issues and troubles and tribulation. The society is challenged and highly sick this days - you can see it from the decisions of policy/law makers but there is a fountain and standard that has stood through all of this tribulation and challenged walls, it's the standards and the word of God.  Receive Jesus today. (I can't help but mention that).  

--- By the way, i used that funny African accent/expression and language because i can relate with Men(People) giving excuses and perhaps, the way I sense the story, people giving excuse, and blah blah blah besides, who know what Country Adam came from (Dont lie before someone says Who Lied?---

My Life, My Choice and My Death.

                       I know someone who humorously say to colleagues that "the ONLY one thing God has left you to handle will probably kill you" (actually when they do the same "wrong" over and over) by saying " its my choice" to him. Am thinking about that and i can deduce some senses from that. If you think pass that junction of religion and organised tradition by getting down to see the work of God in the schedules of nature( from the rising of the sun to the setting of it, the orderliness of ants, ushering of new born children in knowing what to do with the mother's milk and even the unfailing scheme of sleeping and waking, perhaps, how to compose lies also).


               Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - was clear able this; "See, I set before you life and prosperity, death and destruction" - NIV. The next verse is actually one of my Big concern ( Vs 16) it says " For i command you today to love the LORD your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess" - NIV. 


                    Did you see the things i'm seeing? Vs 16 mentioned "today" same was Vs 15. Oh, then its simple right? Today, you have a choice YET today you have a command. whatever you choose, you are still under a command to LOVE God, Walk in obedience, Keep his commands. It further appears if you think you have a "choice" in life ( I mean the right to anything you decide to do), you simply agree with VS 15; Well, if you obviously have that choice, then you are equally under that same command stated in VS 16. 


              Shall i say then that my joy is that God knew you would be here today(where you are with your life- by life i mean Spirit,Soul and Body) and if you need to know a little more about that, then know you are never Alone(God is omnipresent). God loves you and welcomes every prodigal child with a bigger party. At least, 1 Corinthians 2 vs 9 says - "However, as it is written: "What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived" -- the things God has prepared for those who love him-- " (NIV).

                  ON A LIGHTER NOTE (coupled with my personality), i would like to end with this; "What an injustice for you to deny the FULLNESS of God's love for you besides throwing that kind of special party (the kind of party nobody ever had a blog on before) and you still think your love can wait . Finally, you have a choice and always would but, you can choose to Love God back. He's always your Father and you are always his Son, Friend and *put your name*. Nothing is gonna make you more than that or less than but you shall still be left with finding out who he is to you and where are you with God.
