    Rather than sit here and explain in detail what has already been said before I'd start by reading About Joomla! and Getting Started with Joomla! There are a lot of links from these 2 pages that should start to answer your questions :)

    Joomla is a lot of things but in a nutshell:

    Joomla is a content management system (CMS) like wordpress where you can allow site visitors to join you site and show them certain pages which are closed off from normal visitors. Joomla has many extensions (called modules, plugins and components) to extend the use of your site like forums, galleries, e-carts, etc.

    The best is that you dont need to know php or html to use Joomla, although a little will help when problems arise

    Joomla has long been an award winning opensource CMS
    Been using it for years - and haven't come across any other OS-CMS even close to fill its shoes...

    go to joomla.org if you need more info....

    Idiotic. Can't you plug your sig file with an intelligent question? Seriously a monkey can look up joomla.com But then again those monkeys are pretty smart!

    I am not sure, how to answer for this.
    Better you can type in google.com to get lots of info about Joomla.
    My shortanswer is "It is a GREAT CMS, With great community".

    well its not a bad thing asking about Joomla here. Of course the obvious would be to go to the Joomla homepage or its forums and read the about section.

    However as everyone has said, Joomla is a CMS. One of the best out there.

    That's a bit like asking "which is best: oil paints or watercolours?"

    The "right" answer is that it totally depends on what you intend to do with the application you're setting up, your level of expertise, how much time & effort you want to put into it, how much customisation you wish to do, expected traffic, hosting costs, bandwidth etc ad verbatim

    My advice? Download, install and have a go at creating your application with both Joomla and Wordpress and, for that matter, Drupal too and, if you have time, Typo3 and any of the other myriad CMS out there. Whichever one suits your needs and you feel comfortable with... that's the one that's best.

    HTH :)
