One of the first things I created using Joomla was an internal communication system for a large organization. This is called an intranet. An intranet is a private network accessible only to the staff of an organization.
In this particular case the intranet helped solve a problem that is common in a lot of businesses, the problem of internal silos and miscommunication between departments.

On January 20, 2017 a small but very talented group of Joomlers descended on London England for a Joomla! Super Sprint. There's a reason it's called a 'Super Sprint'. This was one of the best Joomla events that I have participated in.
There were some questions ahead of the event about the value for the money that was being spent for it. I can say with absolute confidence that it was tremendous value for the money. I also think some of the elements of the Super Sprint should be in all Joomla events.
For the very first time ever the Joomla World Conference will be held in Canada. It will take place from Novemeber 11 to 13 in the beautiful city of Vancouver, British Columbia.
Joe Sonne will be attending and he is also on the program schedule for Friday afternoon to do a session on "Web Development On Your Local Computer Using MAMP and Joomla! CMS"
