"Once you have sold your client on a mobile website, not its time to let the magic happen. There are a few ways to go about creating a mobile Joomla website. If your development firm has the knowledge and time to build it yourself, this is the obvious solution.

"For many smaller developers, they do not have the know-how or time to work on a mobile project. In this case, there are many Joomla web development companies who you can sub-contract the work to. Find a qualified & experienced Joomla web development firm and have them quote out the project. Then return a quote to your client with a sufficient markup to keep you satisfied.

"Lastly, if neither of these options sounds appealing, Mobile Joomla is an extension used to build a fairly basic site. Additionally, some templates have built in basic mobile sites such as the new Yootheme templates. Typically these end up being fairly basic in nature, but offer some sort of solution. "

Amid the bitterness and brutal language of Labor's leadership brawl, one accusation stood out from the rest - one word in particular.

Kevin Rudd, we were told by Labor frontbencher Kate Ellis, had denounced the prime minister as a ''childless, atheist, ex-communist''. He denies it but Ellis is adamant Rudd spoke those words.

If guilty, Mr Rudd would not have been the first to use the word ''childless'' as an insult. Bill Heffernan, George Brandis and Mark Latham spring to mind.

Do these men really believe this is a legitimate weapon in the rough and tumble of political debate? ''Ex-communist'' at least refers to a political ideology, but a colleague's biology or faith should have no place there.

Both Rudd and Tony Abbott have unashamedly used their families and their faith to political advantage. Particularly in recent weeks, when Rudd carted his wife and children around like accessories and they actively campaigned on his behalf.

Not surprising, then, that when Gillard, as the prime minister who only months earlier had toppled Rudd and then foiled Abbott's prime ministerial ambitions, announced she was going to the royal wedding, Abbott scoffed: ''She may not believe in God, the monarchy or marriage but there will be a royal wedding bounce.''

How ironic that these most personal of barbs emanate from Canberra, which has the country's lowest fertility rate; and that Gillard repeatedly attracts them, while sitting opposite her in the house is Julie Bishop, who has no children either but remains unscathed.

Is word-of-mouth information on the Internet trustworthy or to be taken with a grain of salt?

The operator of a popular website collecting presumably honest consumer commentary about restaurants is endeavoring to gain consumer trust and ensure planted stooges aren't unleveling the playing field.

Kakaku.com Inc., which runs the site Taberogu, said in January it found 39 companies that had been paid by certain restaurants and shops to talk them up and asked that such mercenary practices cease.

Pretending to be a satisfied consumer posting complimentary comments is a classic example of stealth marketing, a practice that has gained greater traction in the online world.

Following are questions and answers regarding stealth marketing:

What defines stealth marketing?

Stealth marketing is an attempt to dupe consumers into believing that what they see posted are honest comments from their peers, not paid propaganda disguised as input from ordinary folks.

Generally, if restaurants, shops and other establishments pay people to write something positive about them on the Internet, that constitutes stealth marketing.

When did stealth marketing in its current form start?

The actual term was coined probably around 2006 in the United States, when Edelman, a large public relations firm, reportedly paid bloggers to travel across the country and write positive commentary about one of its clients, Wal-Mart Stores Inc.
