How are you doing? Still crunching on those nice cookies? Maybe. Well, I'm back to tell some things, and see if there is still an audience willing to listen to my PHP ramblings. First, let me tell you my "personal situation". Wow, that's sound like it's all horrible. It's not.
During the last period of time, I have been working on starting up a company. Also, at school, the pressure was way higher than expected. Much tests, that eventually count for my exam sometimes, and sometimes regular tests. And much much homework. As you might understand, it's not easy to sleep then, nor is it easy to pay much time to writing for this blog.
Solution?
The solution is, slowing down a bit. I've been realizing that I paid too much time starting up the company with the guy I did. It went smooth (most of the time), and it was much fun, and this is a very nice opportunity. But not for a 15 year old boy at the other end of the world (it was in America), who's still attending school at the busiest period of it. So, solution is to quit building up the company, getting clients. Chapter closed.
... and that means?
That I can get high marks for all my tests, paying more attention to school. Also, this means I free up time to sleep (yes!) and it allows me to start writing on PhpCookies again! In the beginning, I will take it easy, and probably after 2 weeks from now, I really start posting, because next week I'm away for holidays.
So I want to know, is there still an audience for this blog? Or is it wasted time?
You might have figured out, that I have been very very busy lately. School was one big disaster. So many tests these days, before christmas holiday. But, now finally I have christmas holiday, and I'm enjoying it. I hope to have more time soon to write some cool PHP posts, so get ready to read.
For now, I want to wish you all a Happy Christmas and a great coding 2008.
My guess is many of the php coders reading this blog also dabble in the fine arts of affiliate marketing so I wanted to share a blog with you that I got an email "tip" about from someone nicknamed "mutt".
Hey all ... I stumbled upon (no, not through stumbleupon.com ...) some videos where Googlers are talking. To be more specific, on one Douglas Merrill (VP of Engineering, and a GREAT guy... I want his e-mail address!), and on the other Larry Page and Sergey Brin (I want their e-mail addresses too. Especially Sergey. He is such a genius. You too, Larry).
So... in one of these videos, Douglas Merrill is at a university in Prague. He talks about the problems you face when building a search engine. He is a great, and interactive, speaker.
And, in the other, (which is significantly shorter ...) the founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, are talking about Google, about some traffic stuff, and you know ... not much. But it's a great talk anyway ;)
Yep, this isn't pure PHP. But it's related to search engines. AND I'M SEARCH ENGINE MINDED!
What do you think? Did you enjoy the videos, or are you not even going to look at them?
A php editor is a program that you edit php with. What is the best php editor?
Currently I use htmlkit which isn't designed specifically for php and lacks a bunch.
Things at the top of my required list for my php editor:
Intellisense - I wish it would guess what i'm trying to type and tell me the options avaialable pluse the syntax. For instance if i typed in the first few letters of explode() it would tell me the syntax.
Indenting - I would love my editor to indent my php code properly.
Color coding - i wish my editor would have different colors for variables, loops, etc.
