Congrats Drupal on winning Best Open Source PHP CMS for 2009. Drupal edged out Wordpress and Joomla who came in joint runners up. This is the first time Wordpress has featured in the top in the top three. This shows that wordpress is finally losing its reputation as a blog-only application. Jooomla and Drupal have been going head to head for a number of years now. Drupal walked off with a check of $2000.00 and the other two both left with $500 each. Well Done to all three.

Twitter on Tuesday has linked up with Linkedin. This will allow tweets to be shared between Twitter and Linkedin. When you update your Linkedin status on your account, this will update the status on your twitter account. And when you tweet, you can send that message to your LinkedIn connections as well, from any Twitter service or tool. Twitter synchronisation will start becoming a reality in the next couple of days.

Joomla 1.5.15 has been released. Some important changes have been made.

The Latest Google Chrome Beta has been released. They claim it is about 400% faster than the first Google Chrome. I don't think so, but i found it by far the quickest browser around. The new added feature with this release is Bookmark Sync. You can keep your Google Chrome bookmarks synchronized and up-to-date across the multiple computers you use, without needing to manually recreate your bookmarks every time you use a different computer. This means that you log in using your Google email account into all the computers you use and it saves your bookmarks.  Pretty cool.

Google has launched a new product called Sidewiki. Sidewiki is downloaded and sits in your Google Toolbar. This allow Sidewiki users to comment about any page on the web. Pretty nifty tool i think.
