'Tis a good read. It has excellent eye-opener material that will get you thinking in some very productive directions. If you're using OOP you should be looking up Design Patterns from the start.
http://www.phppatterns.com is a good PHP reference on the topic.

Sounds interesting. I think I'll hold off, though. Don't exactly have money laying around to spend. ^^;

Yeah, they need to fix that. I've gotten used to searching for the pattern I'm looking for through Google, then hitting the "cached" link...

Hmm, sounds interesting, but since I'm not an enterprise programmer (I'm still in school sheesh), I don't think I'll get into it at the moment.

I'm still in school too, and after only a week of TDD I think I'd jump in a freezing lake before giving up my unit tests.

Who knoes though, if I'll be an enterprise programer in the future...
