Well here is my list of open source solutions running on php:

CMS
Joomla & Drupal have a large community following but out of the two Drupal for me has been the easiest to setup and start using.  They are both theme based and you can produce custom themes and add free modules or develop your own. Alternative to Joomla or Drupal is Wordpress which has less features from install but can be expanded in much the same way.

Dupal / Joomla & Wordpress are the most widely used CMS systems on the web when it comes to opensource. Combine these with phpBB & osCommerce and you have a complete package!

Others:
Another CMS which I am not familar with is TYPO3 boasts over 200,000 user community.

CMS / Blog
Wordpress - I read a report which I can’t find again that said Wordpress has over 20% of the internet market for CMS use which makes it the most widely used blog / CMS on the web.

Forum
phpBB - The most popular forum on the web

e-commerce
osCommerce

Expensive alternatives
Britix Site Manager - License from $300 - $9000 (roughly) with modules & themes costing $$$ on top :o(

Message to self… http://www.news-scroller.com

So I have had this new phone (LG Secret KF750) for a couple of days now and to be honest its just like any other phone.  M-Toy blah! crappy flash games nothing much to look at there.  The 5 mega pixel camera gives pretty good pictures and the DivX video playback is great.

To make the most of these 2 features alone 5MP Camera & Video Playback I have decided to upgrade the phones memory to 4.0GB so waiting for the micro sd card to arrive in the post any day soon.

Now how am I going to get movies on my phone?

Easy! I spoke to my friend Evil Yves and he suggested using the following software:

• DVD Shrink 3.2
• Allok Software Video Joiner
• Allok Software3GP, PSP, MP4, iPod Video Converter

Follow the links above for the software.  For English only versions of most DVD conversions you need to untick the subtitles features on the DVD using DVD Shrink using the re-author feature.

Then if the DVD is split into several files use Video Joiner to make one large AVI version of the movie

Next use Video Converter to make your movie iPod & Mobile phone compatible.  For better quality video on your LG Secret export as 640 x 480 DivX.  I have been converting to iPod, iPhone 320 x 240 screen size which works just as well on the LG Secret and also my iPod.

Image replacement is used to replace any text on your website with an image version.  It works by hiding the original text so that search engines / screen readers and users with images switched off can still view your pages without missing out!
