Joomla vs. WordPress

OK, so now I am almost done moving my site and portfolio from Joomla to WordPress. It has been an interesting experience, and on the WP side extremely smooth. It has been an eye-opener on how much you can customise this system.
I am still testing things out, so the site will be in flux for at least couple more weeks.
On the upside for Joomla though, is that templating for it is extremely straight forward, and the plug ins are extremely advanced.
WordPress still kicks ass for sheer brilliance and smoothness of plugins and template design. It can be as complex or as simple as you want it to be.
About freaking time

Just a quick post to let people know that the latest iteration of the popular Joomla CMS has finally reached a stable 1.5.
I am a big fan of the content management system, and have used it almost exclusively for my projects ever since it was just a twinkle in the eye of Mambo .
I skipped fiddling around with the betas last year, so I could focus on this new version instead. Needless to say, I will download immediately, and figured I might as well update my website while I am at it. During this process, I will write a detailed review, as I go along.
Watch this space for full details.
