to edit your PHP configuration settings, you should locate your php.ini file. you can do it manually, or use the ini_set() function for some options.
Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.

Configuration Management

I've tried a few like CVS and Subversion however as a solo developer these seems like over kill.

I highly recommend Subversion. Its a fantastic piece of software, and useful at every level of development work.

I once used CVS, but its limited and the problems it has are very frustrating for a new user.

With Subversion as a single user, I have a repository that keeps track of my changes. Which means I don't need to have a backup directory for each major change I make. I can simply set a tag, do my changes, and if they aren't right, I can revert the entire tree back to that tag. (Or, of course, revert individual changes or files).

It also gives me a second location for my code: One on my dev box, and another on a public site. So I don't need to make backups as often.

It also gives me a way to share my code: With WebSVN, people can look at the code as I'm working on it, which allows them to comment on it.

Thats just for one user. If I have more than one, it also gives me the ability to merge multiple user's work intelligently, avoid conflicts, save time by downloading only the changes in a file instead of the entire project..

The list goes on. Subversion for the win!
