I've been irritating various people here for a while, figure I might as well introduce myself. :lol:

I'm Eric; I've been writing PHP since about 2001, Python since about 2007, and have been running Linux servers of various types since about 2002.

I'm a movie fiend and a pretty reasonable cook. Myself, two other programmers and a designer started a web consultancy (mostly Django) in January and are just starting to bring on employees; it's going far better than I expected it to, so that eats up most of my time.

When I do have spare time, I've been reimplementing the basics of Django in PHP (an ORM, URL routing, templating with inheritance, session- and server-based caching, DB abstraction, auto-generated CRUD with custom type handling, automatic form generation from classes, and a couple other things). I got the testing architecture working today; it's pretty much done. We're probably going to open source it when I've written test suites for the built-in apps and start using it for company projects.

Fun stuff! :)

Hello,
I'm Charlie from Braintree Massachusetts; I attend the University of Toronto as an Electrical and Computer Engineering Undergrad :D
Hopefully I will be smart and hardworking enough that they don't kick me out

I'm learning PHP and SQL right now so that I can help my family build a website to sell stuff. Inconsistent punctuation ftw!

Hrmmm... I get distracted by computers easily. Unlike the guy above, don't invite me to a game of chess, I'll be reading strategies for 8 hours if you do T_T.

Hello, I am Chris a 21 Year old Support Worker.

I have been self teaching myself php for several year's and have built a variety of php scripts including turn based RPG's, Guest book's, Forum's and now my main project is an open source blog called Mi-Dia Blog.

I have also delbt in site networking using multiple databases, but my roots come from originally modifying phpBB2 forums, which made me decide to ditch the platform and create my own sites from scratch.

I came here to look for some help in expanding the blog software I have written, and I will be making a topic about this in the GD.

Thanks,

Chris

Well, I might as well introduce myself.
I am pretty good at Java and have some experience in C++. Although I don't know how frequent I'll be here. I myself have very little interest in developing the internet but that may just be because I haven't discovered it's brilliance. Social networking is pretty cool but that's all I really think.

I have one question, can anyone direct me to a good ide for php and html. Auto Formating and Code Coloring really help with writing.

Hi-

Well I am Dwight and now residing in Fort Myers, FL (USA).

I am a full time independent developer of online database applications. Although most my income comes as a result of creating and maintaining Magento sites. I am most interested in playing outside the box, creating spiders, bots and scrapers.

My first computer class was 'Boolean Logic' back in 1972 (yeah they had something they called a computer back then). I learned my first programming language 'FORTRAN' in 1983 using a main-frame and punch cards. In 1984 I learned BASIC so I could run the exciting new Apple IIe. I also did my Assembly programming on the mighty 6502 chip. Since then I have learned about a dozen languages but have really stuck with PHP as my language of choice.

I found this forum while searching for an answer to a programming question and found the answer, so I think I'll stick around.

Looking forward to meeting a bunch of you!
