PHP is an extremely popular scripting language. It was originally created in 1995 and designed for the web. It is free of charge and can be used on almost every operating system. There are over 20 million websites and over 1 million web servers running PHP and those numbers are growing every day.

The reason why PHP is so popular and it is continuously growing is because it offers many advantages. These are:

Fast – PHP was created to develop dynamic Web Pages so it is fast on websites. The PHP code is embedded in HTML and the time it takes to process and load the browser with HTML and create a full web page is very quick.

Free – PHP is released under the PHP License. This license is compatible with the GNU General Public License or GPL. Thus making PHP software. This means that anybody can download it and use it 100% for free. Frameworks of WordPress Development & Drupal Development is based on PHP.

Easy - The syntax of PHP is very easy to use and learn. PHP is usually mixed in with HTML and can be easily included in HTML files.

Great Support – Because of its popularity, support for PHP is abundant. There are mailing lists and forums you can join and search for answers. If you’re an organization there are many fantastic developers you can hire to help you out. This is one of the benefits of open source software for businesses; you get the software for free but only pay for support and save yourself a lot of money. Most of Web Design Companies prefer to use PHP.

Well, the www. is replete with Drupal Vs Joomla sorta stuff and most of them conclude that one must pick the CMS that can serve one’s needs best. Most of these comparisons don’t provide any guidance on how users can pick the one according to their needs.

If you want to create your own website or blog and don’t have any previous experience of creating a website or managing its content, you will prefer a system that is simple and easy to use and with least technicalities involved. But how would you pick what can serve your purpose best? It’s true that you must determine your needs first to pick the right software package for your website, but how can you pick them without knowing their pros and cons.

To quantify their pros and cons, one must compare their performance and functional aspects, ease of use and learning, appearance and documentation.

However, apart from website owners, developers have certain preferences. In general, drupal developers seem quite satisfied with drupal content management system while Joomla developers seem to blow the trumpets of the available features and functions in Joomla. But here we are trying to find out which CMS is right for the general users and we are not comparing these two from a developer’s view point.

For those looking for better extensibility or want to run a large site, Drupal may prove a right pick for them. Many well known organizations of the world like the UN, the Discovery Chanel and Warner Brothers are using Drupal CMS for their sites mainly because of its effective security features. This CMS has also been rated higher than Joomla for its better documentation. Similarly, the users of this CMS reckon it better than Joomla when it comes to multimedia support, SSL, social networking and user management.

On the other hand, if you are not a geek, you may find Joomla a better option because of its ease of use in managing and maintaining your website. Joomla allows its users to upgrade maintain and publish their content with loads of ease and they often don’t need technical assistance when doing so.

Keep in mind that there is no cut and dried answer to find which content management system is better, as a lot depends on your website requirement.

When it comes to their differences, these are quite prominent in front of the general mass over the World Wide Web. All you need to do is pay a close attention to their real and clear-cut differences so that you may be able to distinguish them properly. Let’s discuss Joomla, WordPress, and Drupal differences step-by-step:

Joomla

joomla website design

When it comes to Joomla, it provides you a platform to efficiently publish and display the optimized website content over the World Wide Web. More importantly, it has plenty of unique features and elements for example:

• Caching
• RSS feeds
• Printable web pages
• News flashes
• Blogs Polls
• Search
• Language internationalization support

It is designer plus developer friendly because it presents a wider and extensive platform for developers to customize and bring in new features in the system and the potential to get better the look and feel of the custom website is absolutely broadly accepted by designers worldwide. Moreover, it is capable of handling a colossal group of people and has been in proper use since 2008 and 2009.

But the fact of the matter is that Joomla still needs a lot of improvement as well as improvisation when it comes to comparison with WordPress and Drupal. It is not XHTML based and absolutely lacks the option to create multisite.

WordPress

wordpress website design

There is no denying that WordPress is the most efficient and useful content management system (CMS) worldwide. Therefore it would regularly support you when it comes to blogging and publishing your website content. Interestingly it is being regularly used by almost 202 millions websites these days. It has plenty of unique and versatile features for instance

• Widgets that can be approved without editing the HTML
• Search engine friendly
• Multiple categories to a blog post
• Allows tagging of blog postings and articles

Although it has many blogging options and profiles but it is not as much effective content management system (CMS) as the others are. Moreover it is not a Developer friendly content management system and it just brings more and more bugs with its new upgrades. But the best advantage of using WordPress CMS is that it is very trouble free to use.

Drupal

drupal website design

As far as Drupal CMS is concerned, it is a back end system used for managing a range of corporate websites worldwide. Besides, Drupal can be efficiently used for managing both small business websites as well as large business websites globally. It has plenty of features and elements for instance:

• Registering and Maintaining user accounts
• Creating and Handling menus
• RSS feeds
• Customization of a layout
• Internet Forum
• Single or multi User blog
• Powerful template system

The amazing thing about Drupal content management system is that it is every developer’s heaven worldwide. But when it comes to Drupal’s drawbacks, it is not as much user friendly CMS as the other systems are. But this is the fact most renowned websites are nowadays making use of Drupal for effective and dynamic content management for example, MTV UK, BBC, the Onion, Greenpeace UK and so on.

If the question makes you think, it’s worth asking.
1. What is it like to wake up every morning and pretend that you aren’t dying?
2. Do you believe in the death penalty? What if someone murdered your mother in cold blood? What if someone murdered a stranger’s mother, but saved your life the month before?
3. If you had a friend who spoke to you in the same way that you sometimes speak to yourself, how long would you allow that person to be your friend?
4. Would you rather be rich and paralyzed from the waist down or poor and able bodied?
5. What’s the most expensive gift you have ever received? Is it the best gift you have ever received?
6. When was the last time you lied? Is it possible to lie without saying anything at all?
7. Stealing is immoral, right? But what if stealing was the only way to feed a starving child?
8. If I gave you $20, what percentage would you – really – save? If I gave you $200,000, what percentage would you save? Should there be a difference?
9. If someone could tell you the exact day and time that you are going to die, would you want them to tell you?
10. If you found out you were going to die today, would you have any regrets? Would you be happy with the way you spent the last 24 hours of your life?
11. What’s your single greatest moment of personal failure? Looking back on it now, did it make you weaker or stronger? What did you learn?
12. Do the words ‘freedom’ and ‘liberty’ mean not being persecuted or discriminated against, or do they mean doing whatever you please?
13. Have you ever discriminated against someone? Imagine that a street gang notorious for wearing purple shirts has robbed and murdered several hundred people in your town. If a man wearing a purple shirt just rang your doorbell, would you answer it?
14. Is it crazier to choose to be poor or to spend 40 years of your life hating 40 hours a week?
15. Do you ever feel like you don’t have enough time? How many hours a week do you spend watching TV, or playing video games, or…?
16. Do you ever celebrate the green lights?
17. If you could be given another talent or ability, what would you want it to be? Have you ever – really – tried to perfect this ability in yourself?
18. No matter how bad things get, are you aware that someone always has it worse than you do?
19. When you help someone, do you ever think, “What’s in it for me?”
20. Joy is found with simple awareness. What does your joy look like today?
21. What’s the difference between ‘living’ and ‘existing?’
22. Are you willing to sacrifice the life of your child or lover to support a war?
23. Do you ask enough questions, or do you settle for what you know?
24. If you could do it all over again, would you change anything?
25. If your life was a novel, what would be the title and how would your story end?

Web form is often the main communication channel between visitors and site owners. Feedback is always important which is why it’s necessary to make sure that web forms are easy to understand and intuitive to use. Nevertheless, even in form design one can afford some healthy portion of creativity.

Web forms don’t have to be boring and, using CSS or Flash, you can easily make sure that they are appealing and effective. To get noticed, you need to come up with something unique and interesting — symbols, icons, colors, position or the size of web form are often used to achieve interesting design solutions. We’ve searched for some examples and we’ve found them. Creative, original and unusual web forms.

Clean, Simple and Beautiful Solutions

Since web form is probably one of the most important sections on the web-site, it’s necessary for you as a designer to make sure that visitors can easily understand what information they need to fill into the form fields. Complex and long web forms increase the cognitive load for users — they are just harder to deal with. In this context, preferring simple and clean solutions seems like a sound approach. However, if the form was designed with an attention to details and looks good, it’s also reasonable to use some attractive imagery in the forms.

When Twitter became more than a web tool to update 140 character snipits of daily thoughts and went so far as becoming a useful effective campaign instrument during the Presidential election, Sports News, Celebrity fan fair and even a platform to conduct chatter about online protests in the Iranian Elections; The New York Times was able to identify it as a 21st-century revolutionary communication tool that aspires to be something more than the usual social network platform.

This popularity ultimately indicates that not only has twitter assured itself a secure location in the future of online networking, it also has strengthened its potential value of being a top advertising tool and becoming the most popular monetizing instrument right now as a scalable web platform.

Still under the stage of developing its value, Twitter has already been used in different networking projects in the web that cater to big-time advertising solutions. Websites like Magpie.com have already made social-network projects that tapped into the Twitter system and have already become as popular as the blog posts that are being advertised within twitter users’ accounts. However, the current trend of making money using twitter is still mostly restricted to big companies who are willing to invest and risk more in experimenting investments on advertising tools that are in one way or another still in the beta version.

In the blogosphere world, Twitter is still a communication tools amongst friends used mostly through services like TweetDeck to those who are using it to advertise their small-time business services and products which as of right now is coming thru as spam or unwanted Tweets.
In a sense, generating revenues from twitter has not been proven to be effective for all, although some are having great success like Dell who increased sales through promotional tweets by over 3 million. Nonetheless, Twitter’s effective monetary potential is still always a force to be reckoned with by most social-network experts like longtime successful blogger Mark Rizzn’ Hopkins:

“I find this new method of Twitter monetization to be just as interesting, and based on the routes that the Magpie folks are taking, I think that it’ll do pretty well, assuming they’re able to keep a lid on those that would try to game the system and run them into bankruptcy.”

Clearly there’s still so much to expect from the Twitter Management team and everybody can still hope that anytime soon everyone can already tap into their system and make money from it just as much as top major companies do. Right now, what one can mostly do to at least take advantage of Twitter’s platform in developing one’s own products and websites is to acknowledge its high, unparalleled value as a tool for online branding and ollis Thomases, president and founder of WebAdvantage.net, couldn’t agree more:
“exposure.

Twitter, as part of the social media space, is a place that opens brands up for exposure. Brands trying to use this platform must both trust the Twitter community as well as establish their own trust within the community.”

With Google testing its AdSense to integrate with Twitter, we can definitely see this potential fully realized any time soon.
