Joomla 1.6 Usability Improvements
I admit it. I am biased toward Joomla. There are many worthy content management systems to pick from, but for me, Joomla has changed the face of my business. Joomla makes my job easier, because I can provide my clients with technology that in the past would have been cost-prohibitive. Of course, Joomla isn't right for everyone, and for those people, I have no problem recommending Drupal or WordPress.
Over the past couple of years, the trend in web development is migrating from a static platform (like Dreamweaver) and moving toward a dynamic platform (like Joomla). Although Joomla 1.5 is a far superior CMS than its predecessor, Joomla 1.0, I am really excited about Joomla 1.6, which is currently in development. Some of the shortcomings of Joomla 1.5—like an Access Control System (ACS)—will no longer be an issue.
