Joombalaia is Config.Com's Joomla! Based Linking And Intranet Application. It's a fancy name for the application we've developed from the Content Management System powered by Joomla! It was a long night in a cold Ohio November when I came up with the name. Well, actually, Config's Business Manager and Treasurer John McFarland came up with the name, when he teased Joe Rinehard and me: "You're still working on that jambalaya thing?" All I did was come up with the spelling (which I believe is unique), and the acronym to match. As the snow started falling, I started thinking about the warm Gulf region, and spicy Creole dishes like jambalaya... and then it hit me! Joombalaia! It is with great pleasure that we serve this steaming hot dish of Joombalaia to our friends and clients. Let's add some spice to your Internet presence and heat up your e-commerce, SEO, and Internet marketing efforts. Enjoy; or as they say in New Orleans, laissez les bons temps roulez! We are pleased to offer Joombalaia, our Joomla!-based Content Management System. Content Management Systems, or CMS, are the latest innovation in website technology. Using CMS, you can easily and quickly transform your website from a turnkey three page model designed (and often maintained) by someone else to a much more comprehensive and useful site that you control yourself! Unfortunately, until now CMS has been out of reach of the average business conducting e-commerce. Web portals have been made popular by larger Internet-only companies like Yahoo! and Google... companies that can afford to have full-time staff on-hand to design complex website systems. This process leads to websites that are very engaging, yes; but also very elaborate (too elaborate, in fact, to be easily maintained) and very, very expensive. These companies can make websites like that; Internet is their livelihood. Chances are, though, that's not why you're in business. Joombalaia makes CMS easy, just as Config.com, Inc. has been making Internet easy since 1994. We have developed this application using Joomla!, a GNU/GPL licensed (Open Source) Content Management System. We put our expertise into offering Joombalaia, with several members of Team Config having worked with Internet technologies since before the Web was invented. Most importantly, we have the knowlege to make CMS work for you, with Search Engine Optimization and other services that ensure that your website doesn't get lost in the crowd. That's what Joombalaia can do for you. Here are some facts about Joombalaia, including data about Joomla! Features of Joombalaia:- Completely database driven site engines
