I'm actually looking for a great eCommerce platform ..
I need to start a project, my employer recommended me Magento, but i can suggest something else.
I really dont know Magento, and im well skilled with TYPO3, so i wonder if im better to use TYPO3 MultiShop or Magento ?
Note : That website will be very big so we need a limitless extensible platform.
What you recommend me for my purposes ? Magento or TYPO3 MultiShop ?
Magento is the better shop system, Typo3 is the better CMS system.
Since the shop is probably your focus since you want to sell something, I would vote for Magento.
Another option, though, is to combine the best of both worlds by using Magento together with Typo3, for example with this: http://www.typogento.com/

I am eager to become a good Magento developer. I have done a little customization in Magento such as,
customization in theme.
create custom tabs in admin side.
understand dir structures of magento.
I did this under the guidance of my senior company mate and I use Magento's knowlege base as well as a Magento cookbook. But now I want to do some practical exercises, for that I need some good resources.
Thanks in advance.
To get a general overview of all Magento topics you could use the studyguide for magento certification (studyguide). Working with the sourcecode and answering the questions myself helped me a lot to understand how Magento works and I improved myself in topics I didn't know that much before. There are even blogs who explain this topics (magestore).

I am just looking for some opinions on a preferable module to us efor Joomla. It must:
allow CMS users to edit fields etc.
store data in the database
not have excessive mark up
have easily editable themes.
I have used Breezing forms and some others, but they all seem a bit clunky and over kill for what is required.
I would like a fairly lightweight form module with easy customisation from a dev point of view.
You can use Fabrik extension. You can get it by go to this link
It's free and simple to use. Fabrik gives you the power to create forms and tables that run inside Joomla without requiring knowledge of MySQL and PHP. Then feed your data into Google Maps, Charts or an AJAX based calendar etc.It's my personal opinion, I have used this and found it interesting.
And others extension such as RSform ,Breezing forms, Red form etc. but these are commercial extension.
RSForm! Pro is the best form module.
http://www.rsjoomla.com/
RSForms Pro is a really good component for forms in Joomla. But it isn't really lightweight, it's fairly extensive. But still quite easy to use. ;)
I would recommend RSForms!
Well maintained
Easy to use and powerful
Theming engine
The price is low enough to avoid all the hassle "free" components can provide
Have a look at their website : http://www.rsjoomla.com/joomla-extensions/joomla-form.html

I'm looking for a complete book for Joomla! 2.5 template design.
(I want to learn the best, the newest and the most standard way to code Joomla 2.5 template)
What do you suggest? (cost is not a problem!)
Thanks.
I'd start off with the free stuff. The Joomla wiki page here on creating a basic template. Personally I found this video made at a Joomla Conference pretty helpful. This tutorial whist for Joomla 1.5 very little template wise changed from 1.5 to 1.6-2.5 versions.
Also make sure you're happy with non-joomla css/html/php templates as that is what these are at the end of the day with some extra bits here and there.
Once you've done that have a look at some of the existing frameworks. Most are available for free. The yootheme warp master theme here, the Nooku framework, Gantry Framework whilst all customizable if you want to make your own template on a existing framework for the first couple of go's to get a feel for it. You can also learn a lot about how site development works from the way that other people have built their templates if you wish to work that way!
So far 0 pence spent and a pretty good idea of how Joomla templates work!! If you are desperate to spend dosh go for the offical Joomla Book on it here.
All you need is here:

I'm looking for a substitute for Wordpress and Squarespace that's implemented in Ruby. It can be a Rails app, a Rails plugin, or a standalone static page generator. The most important features we're looking for is that it comes with a selection of nice looking themes and is easy to set up.
I've used Typo in the past with success. It's written in Ruby, is reasonably active and can be installed as a gem. It comes with a default theme and there are a bucket full of themes available at Typogarden.
The most popular weblog engine written in ruby from its earlier days is tdiary (github, sourceforge). It is developed in Japanese, and there is not much English documentation, though. But there is an English mailing list.
