Sean Coates: PHP, Web (+Beer)

Hello, and welcome to PeeaycHPee, the PHP-related blog of Sean Coates. If you're not involved in the PHP project, somehow, you might as well venture off to other things.

Why did I start Yet Another PHP Blog™?

Well, I've been coding PHP for 5+ years, involved in the PHP community for about 3 years (actively so for 1.5 years), and have created a number of meta-php offerings. So, I thought it was about time to dig out the soap box and start my own running commentary. I should've done this months ago.

What are my plans?

I do a fair bit of reading on various PHP mailing lists—on some I carry a bit of weight, but on others not so much. I sometimes have opinions and ideas that are related to what is read, but aren't necessarily worthy of posting to the list.

I will also, from time to time, post a stray PHP-related idea I have, or open up a discussion on the "best" way to do something, or even an outright cry for help.

I'd also like to start summarizing the activities of the PHP Documentation team (english), from mailing list discussions to DocWeb & Livedocs progress, and anything in between, in the vein of the Zend Weeklies. I've been thinking about doing this for a while, but haven't had the discipline to actually sit down, (bi-)weekly, and type something out. Hopefully this web log will keep me somewhat accountable.

So, feel free to check back once in a while. If you don't like what you read, post an intelligent reply. If you're incapable of doing so, feel free to go elsewhere.

Happy reading.
