Congratulations to Joomla core dev team and the community. I bet our servers get even hotter once Joomla 1.5 and 2.0 are released. I can see good APIs that encourage lots of development projects.

Another statistics to share:

http://www.joomla.org:

- This website is exceptionally popular (approx #1,645 in the world)
- This website is extremely well linked to (765,000 websites link here)
- Your website responded in 0.37 seconds, and your homepage downloaded in 0.78 seconds. This is very fast and suggests your website is running on a sufficiently powerful web server.
- Joomla! on google: 31,700,000 results !

Source: SiteScore (of course using other stats from google and others):

Enjoy !
And Congrats to everybody from the large Community ! :)

Many thanks to the fine people at Rochen for making these servers available to the project. Three cheers!

Brad - it would be great to make some of these stats available online. I'd be especially interested in hits / unique visitors over the past year. Breaking these figures into the various x.joomla.org sites would be really awesome!

Thanks again on a job well done.  8)

Just saw that headline and for a second there I thought that it was decided to either blow up the project or change its name to JoomlaNuke or something for sake of misguided nostalgia.

In any case, pushing 1 terabyte of traffic around the Internet can only be testament to a dedicated, active community of Joomla fanatics, and I'm glad to be a part of it (since I must be responsible for at least 50 gig  ;))

Yes well done to all the team. Joomla has grown tremendously in such a short time. Its amazing what can be achieved when you remove corporate suits from the equation.

Had a similar thought myself when i saw the headline on my phone. I just hope 1.5 doesnt become a WMD

Very Very impressive and for me (joomla starter) a confirmation that I made the right choice in Q1 to switch from ZenCart to Joomla & Virtuemart.

Thumbs up for the whole team an keep up the good work.

What a pity to use the word 'nuclear' and use the 'nuclear' log

I have nothing against using nuclear power for energy generation.

Using it with 'smashing' something for other than that, is not desirable for my taste.

Another thing is, and has been hinted at, the connotations with p h p N u k e, not only in word but also the 'nuclear' logo.

I remember when I registered myself here that J had 3200/3300 members... I'm very proud to see all this development in quality and quantity. And I think the best has to come with 1.5  :D

he  will want to bomb to us


Nothing wrong with getting bombed every now and then...I got bombed just last week!


Kudos to Brad and the teams for keeping this site up and running and so popular!

And that kind of traffic is a testament to the Core Devs for making such a great product!

But we all know the reason everyone comes here is to yell at me right?
LOL
