Zend has finally released the 1.5 version of their Framework. I have been using their Release candidates for a little over a month now and am very excited that they have hit this milestone. Check out http://framework.zend.com to download the framework, and read tutorials on setting it up and using it. They also have video tutorials. One bitt of advice after briefly reading their new Quick Start Guide. Read the rest of this entry »

Well I finally bought the computer to replace my 20″ iMac G5 (that I sold over 6 months ago). I went to the Apple store today to purchase a new 24″ iMac. Let me tell you Cory’s advice was dead on. Getting a 24″ was well worth it, lots of space on the desktop etc. The one negative is how much physical desk space it took up. Oh well, a sacrifice I am willing to take.

Also for anyone who didn’t know, I have left UCF and am now working for a very creative web development company, NFi Studios. I have been there already 3 weeks, and I feel right at home. I work with some pretty remarkable people, who take great pride in the end product, and know how to have fun doing it. So overall life is great! BarCamp Orlando is coming up, so if you are into that kinda stuff, get your butt out there. Also the release of Microsoft Visual Studio 2008, Windows Server 2008 and SQL Server 2008 is coming up. Lot’s to do this month and next. I hope to update some, in a bit.
