[This site is a] compilation of screencasts from Youtube and Vimeo. Let's learn Laravel together!

There's already a good number of screencasts posted to the site from folks like Taylor Otwell (author of the framework), Jeffrey Way (NetTuts) as well as several recordings of talks from various conferences about the framework. If you have a screencast that's not linked on the site, you can submit the information for review and inclusion.

A few days ago, I posted a video about how to become a better developer. There were a few interesting comments made, but one in particular from the Reddit threadpeaked my interest. So I decided to do a reply.

You can watch the video either in his blog or over on Youtube. He's also included the some of the contents of the Reddit post and a funny (relevant) comic about learning "C++ in 21 days".

The Mediator Pattern is an extremely flexible and useful tool to help decouple your code and provide added flexibility in your applications. We'll explore the basic concept of a Mediator, some places you've used it and some things that you can do to improve upon the basic concept.

You can watch the video either in the post or over on YouTube. If you enjoy the episode, you should also consider the rest of the videos in the series, all available from this playlist.

This week's Programming With Anthony video is up! In it, we discuss the foundations of Boolean Logic and introduce some very interesting tools for analyzing logical constructs (including Truth Tables and De Morgan's Laws).

The two other video tutorials he's posted are:

• an introduction to encryption
• about programming paradigms

If you like the videos, leave him feedback on what you'd like to see in future videos.

Last month, we were pleased to publish all the videos from this year's edition of Symfony Live conferences in Paris and in San Francisco. During the first week following their publication, more than 10,000 views were recorded, that's amazing! And today, we've just added 5 more hours of talks.

There's seven videos in the playlist including talks from Mike van Riel (video), Rowan Merewood (video) and Fabien Potencier himself (video) with a look at what's coming up for Symfony.

These days every website must contain a section that is called '�Share This'�. After creating facebook style posting and youtube style rating system I have now come to share button. I have created youtube style share button with url shortening script. Try the demo and use this awesome tutorial on your web pages.

His tutorial includes all of the code needed - Javascript, PHP and some CSS - to create a small "share this" button that can be embedded in your site to open pages on the remote sites with the shortened URL for the current page.

The Zend Framework contains a number of APIs for accessing Google services, including YouTube. In this article I will show you how to retrieve a feed of videos from YouTube using the Zend_Gdata_YouTube class within Zend_Gdata. [...] To simplify things in this article, we're going to use the service to retrieve videos for a specific user, and we're going to do so using anonymous authentication.

Included in the tutorial are the methods for pulling a list of videos for a given YouTube username and looping over the resulting list to display them as links to a page. This includes examples of fetching information like date published, last update and embedding the videos (or thumbnails) directly into the page. For more information on the component, see this section of the Zend Framework manual.

The task is to read the entire Gdata from a YouTube's channel. It may sound easy, but as you may know Gdata is based on the Atom publishing protocol, and it naturally gives you only the latest few items.

The component lets you go through the pages of content from a user or channel on YouTube and pull out the metadata about each. Code is included to show you how to make the connection, get the thumbnail information for each video and push it back out the other side in an nice, clean array.

Appcelerator was a sponsor at ZendCon 08 this year but obviously they were much more as well. They created a series of videos from interviews they shot while there.

It's a series of four videos with titles like "Developers Hate PHP!", "Developers Love PHP!" and some "PHP Developer Gripes". Check them out and see if you can spot some of the notable names in the PHP community.
