So there I was working furiously on a new Joomla 1.6 template and out of the blue I am "randomly contacted via email" by a friendly gentleman offering to let me test out his Joomla extension called EasyBlog.

Of course, I was skeptical at first but it looked pretty cool in the screen-shots so I figured it would be worth a try. I am glad I did give it a whirl because I am super impressed! And super happy I have a brand new blogging tool to actually help me get into gear again.

There are a lot of features in EasyBlog which will definitely help to improve my blogging experience and encourage me to blog more often. It should also feed traffic to my site because when setting it up I found myself wanting to sign up for FeedBurner and Twitter and some other things I should have done long ago. Not to mention it also allows visitors to sign up and post blog posts of their own!
