    I was just curious about this since i am myself also interested in using Joomla and wanted to know who is also using Joomla for their site(s).

    If you use Joomla let yourself be heared. Can be very usefull if you have some questions regarding this Content management system.

    From what i have read about this seems the ideal way to manage a website.
    By the way can you also integrate a shopping cart into Joomla?

    This is the first I have heard of "Joomla".

    I checked out the sites demo and it seems like a good clean system.

    Anyone have any feedback on the security with this system?

    I also use Joomla, and another important fact is that it uses seo-friendly urls.

    I have several clients that use Joomla on their sites. I also have one of my own sites in development that I am using Joomla on. A very good CMS, but one has to remember that just because it has certain feature does not mean every site has to use it, but overall very adaptable.

    I've got a couple of sites that are running Mambo, but I need to update to Joomla.

    I'm sort of tied to Joomla, since I've joined a template club founded by a Joomla developer, and I have a SEO module made by another Joomla developer.

    I'm not sure if these links will show up, but here are two sites that I'm running Mambo/templates/SEO plugin on:

    I'm running all the sites in my sig on Mambo. The time is fast approaching when I need to decide about upgrading through Mambo, or move over to Joomla.

    I've got some new site launches due too - and again - Mambo (I now know it well) or Joomla?

    Anyone else move past this crossroads?

    So on topic, I'm familiar with Joomla, like very much what I've seen so far, but I've got commitment issues. ;)

    I've got it running but I've been too lazy to actually do anything with it.

    I tried Joomla on one of my sites about 4 weeks ago.
    It is still not all indexed.

    Larned a lot about Joomla, but still hesitating to move my main site to Joomla as I have SEO issues : like meta tags in sections and how SE friendly are menu links. I use SEF Advance module which makes SE friendly links but are not sure about its efectivness.

    Does anybody know more about these issues?
