This morning we launched a new website for the 2012 National Hoarding and Squalor Conference:
http://www.hoardingsqualorconference.com.au
This website utilizes the Joomla CMS, with the addition of the DTRegister module to handle conference registration and payments.

While putting together a website for an upcoming conference, I realised that I needed to work out fee amounts minus the included GST amounts.
Not being mathematically inclined, I searched and found a quick and easy calculator that I thought I’d share:

We have just launched a new website for Catholic Community Services, found here:
http://www.catholiccommunityservices.com.au
The site is powered using the Joomla! CMS, along with a number of plugins to enhance the appearance and functionality.
Shortly we will be setting up a Virtuemart powered online store on their “Shop” page, which will enable CCS to sell various products to their clients.

It surely is. Here’s a great article by Shanelle Newton Clapham, an Australian (Sydney based) expert in the field of online marketing and digital media:
In the latest attempt by Mozilla to follow in Google’s footsteps, it appears that the new versions of Firefox will possibly have the URL bar removed by default. Google’s Chrome already offers this as an option, however recent comments coming out of Mozilla Labs indicates that they intend to remove it completely from Firefox’s interface – or at least have it disabled by default on installation.
Post on Mozilla Labs here: http://mozillalabs.com/conceptseries/2011/05/24/community-concepts-ubiquitous-firefox-part-1-how-do-you-design-a-debris-less-browser/
There are plenty of reasons why this is a hilariously bad idea; the most pressing issue that comes to mind are phishing sites and scams, and how to identify them in the browser without being able to see the URL.
The key argument for removing traditional parts of the user interface tends to be steered more towards reclaiming screen space, and reducing clutter. However in a world where widescreen, 24″ monitors are now the norm (and generally available for less than $250), the idea of removing a 33 pixel-high URL bar to get more screen space seems to be a moot point.
I truly doubt and hope this idea does not make it past the concept stage.
