Soapbox Engage Blog

It seems nearly every day, I read about a brewing debate to determine what's "best" for non-profits:  Joomla!, Drupal, Plone, or Wordpress.  To be honest, I really think this debate is about as useful as a debate about the "best" color in the rainbow.  So you can imagine my surprise when I read a quite useful introductory review of Joomla by Tess Gadwa in TechSoup on Friday.

After an introduction on CMSes, Tess dives into a key question that folks ask me nearly every day:  Why Joomla?  With a question like that, I couldn't help but pen a blog entry.
