Joomla 10th Birthday Celebrations

Joomla 10th Birthday Celebrations

The Joomla community is celebrating the 10 years of Joomla with creative art, video, meetups and cake.

The 1st of September is traditionally the day to celebrate the birth of Joomla, and that gives me another opportunity to again say: Happy Birthday Joomla!

The Joomla community has been celebrating by contributing and sharing their talents, and eating Joomla Birthday cake.

Cake & Cupcakes

Tim Plummer, from the Joomla User Group in Sydney in Australia, specially baked a Joomla birthday cake to share at their user group meetup. It looks delicious, and reports are that it tasted delicious too. Shaila Man provided the Joomla cupcakes.
