LinuxJedi's /dev/null

Its been over a week since PHP London '08 and I have been thinking about which angle to write a blog post about it.  I have also been incredibly busy since then so haven't had a chance to write much in my blog.

So, it was a fantastic day, and I met some great people.  Did I learn anything?  Yes.  Don't trust our hosting company with anything, we had a server failure whilst I was in Stefan Esser's talk which I am not happy about.  Apart from that I don't think there was much to learn from the main stream for the target audience for the conference.  The smaller room had some more advanced topics which were of more interest to me.

Ivo's talk at the start of the day was brilliant, certainly kept the audiance engaged.  Project Zero was interesting but I can't see it being used by our company.  PHP testing (or lack of) was also pretty interesting to me, something I would help with if I had some spare time.  Derick Rethans was a great choice to round up the day.

In summary I am cetainly looking forward to next year's conference.

I would like to congratulate LornaJane on her new job, it sounds an excellent position.

And I think she will agree after today that it is a small world.  Lorna, I look forward to seeing you at the PHP London Conference if not before.

My boss has manage to persuade those up high to pay for us to go the the PHP London 2008 conference.  There are many people I'm looking forward to meet there, and to cap it all off its the day after my Birthday (my 28^th birthday is on the 28^th of this month).

If you are going I hope to see you there, especially the guys from #phpc.
