Online, it's so easy to say something you would never say to another person's face. It's easy to throw out a lot of negativity, use foul language and don't care about the other person's reaction.
Perhaps you should stop and think again before you write a negative comment on a blog, a harsh tweet or a ranting forum post. Would you say the things you say if the person was sitting across the table at a coffee shop? Would you be that harsh? Or would you let the other person have a chance to present his or her view and reasons for doing this or that? I think you would - but online it's so easy to forget these common-sense rules we try to live by in real life.

As you might remember, I went to the first ever Joomla Night Stockholm earlier this year. While there, I also attended the Nooku Jam session with Johan Janssens and other members of the Nooku team.
I filmed Johans presentation about what Nooku is and how it can help developers. I finally got around to editing and publishing the complete video to YouTube. So, now you can sit down, grab a cup of coffee - or a beer ;) - and learn a bit about the Nooku framework in this 35 minute presentation.

PHP web apps with New Relic RPM.
Joomlashack just recently released the Enterprise template.
Last week, I wrote about the new extension from Open Source Training: OSToolbar. This is new extension places video tutorials throughout your Joomla administrator area.
I talked to Steve Burge to hear a bit more about how and why they created the extension, and how it can help the different types of Joomla users.
Most people don't make a concious choice to use open source software. They choose the software by looking at its functionality. Or perhaps a friend recommended that they try it. Price is also a factor, of course, and that's where open source software really shines.
Choosing to use open source software might not seem like a big thing at first - but it is!
Open source software is changing the world, and the way people interact and communicate. And you are a part of that!
A few weeks back, OS Training released the extension OSToolbar.
This is an innovative new extension that places video tutorials throughout your Joomla administrator area.
The software makes it easy for you and our clients to find the help you need, exactly when you need it.
