About 10 days ago, we held a special online event called "Joomla 3 Day".
Joomla 3 Day was like a free, online Joomla Day.
We had a series of 30 to 45 minute presentations. The expert speakers talked about speeding up your Joomla website, building multi-lingual websites, the new features in K2, and much more.
We held the event to mark the publication of Joomla 3 Explained, so all the presentations focused on Joomla 3.
I'm delighted to say that we had a really good turnout for the event.
Now we've also published videos of the presentations. You can watch 17 sessions on YouTube.
