Where Can I Find Joomla Resources For Beginners?

Joomla is great for beginners as it is designded to simplify rather complex sites such as for social network communities and e-commerce! Used ‘as is’ Joomla runs (without plugins) a community (ie multi user) magazine/blog-style website.
Installation is easy if you follow the instructions on the Joomla website - they also have tutorials for version 1.0.XX and are preparing the userguide for version 1.5 at this moment:http://help.joomla.org
You and your users then feed in the articles to read, items to sell, etc. You as administrator control who has access and who can create articles / items.
You can create and edit the templates as you wish and install plugins to enhance your site. They are just text files, editable with Notepad (Google “Notepad+” for an enhanced version, better for editing website files).
A great site for ‘empty’ basic templates is Compass Designs:http://www.compassdesigns.net
