I am always excited to receive Entrepreneur magazine.

My excitement dropped down a couple of notches when I attended their recent seminar Seminar for Business Owners Who Want to Use the Power of the Internet to Grow Their Business in Long Beach California. Four hours of Mitch Meyerson, Author of Mastering Online Marketing on the podium praising WordPress.

Actually had enough and walked out after 1 hour.

Today I just got the new magazine in the mail, and browsing through it I find an articel on CMS's and in their comparison chart they state Joomla is bad for ...

"Anyone looking for real customization. It's user / developer community isn't as substantial as Drupal's or WordPress's. making some essential plug'ins harder to find"

Please allow me to express a loud WTF....

I am so looking forward to Joomla! PR firm's response to this

As a matter of fact we all have a job to do. I'll invite Ms Erin Weinger out for a latte or two for a little friendly chat about Joomla! and it's THRIVING community, in the hope she might be able to write a little more qualified article next time.

If only the author seen the people and heard the ideas at JAB...

Ewout - I agree. That is the way to do PR in free software - feed the community and send them out to the world!

Yeah, we should send Ms Erin Weinger a link to the presentation Steve Burge gave at #jab10 about Drupal, WordPress and Joomla.

You can have preferences, but you can't write down false things, for a columnist (journalist) it is not an option == utter fail
