Talks

This is a list of the talks I’ve given and the slides for each of them if they are available.

Five things I wish they had told me before I started programming in PHP

Five things I wish they had told me before I started programming in PHP is a raucous romp through PHP, covering not only mistakes that programmers make, but skills they need to make sure they master.

This is a 101 level course. If you are new to programming or just new to PHP, you will get something out of this.

Five things Slides – Codeworks 09

Design Patterns

An irreverent jog through the Temple of the Gang of Four. We will examine 10 design patterns, discuss when to use each and, when applicable, give example code.

This is a 201 level course. You must have a firm grounding in Object Oriented design and programming to really get anything out of this.

Zend Framework from the Command Line

Everybody knows you can build great web applications using Zend Framework. Few people know that you can build great CLI tools with it also. This is an overview on what it takes to write CLI tools using Zend Framework. It includes a look at Zend_Tool.
