Davey Shafik has posted his latest roundup from the php|works & web|works conference - Day Two.

Well, I'm still here at php|works/web|works. Currently I'm attending Gilbert Hyatts Rich User Interfaces with AJAX.

Gilbert has released his own AJAX framework called PAJAJ which I've look at briefly and it seems to be a good start, its currently at the 0.2 release so I wouldn't expect it to be as stable as say, JPSPAN.

Next up I took in the first part of Amy Hoy's Web Development 2.0 talk, which although I had to leave early, it was a really great start and I wish I could have stayed for the entire session. [...] After this, I took Zend PHP Certification Exam here at the conference, and I was very surprised. The exam was actually very taxing, I found that some of the questions where not worded in the most obvious way, though this is nothing new with exams.

He mentions a few of the other talks in there, but I found his (brief) comments about the certification exam interesting. I felt pretty much the same way about it - it wasn't hard, it was just...well...confusing at times. Questions weren't worded in (in Davey's words) "the most obviosu way". I know some of that's intentional, forcing you to think differently, but sometimes it's not very clear...

Oh well, best of luck to all taking the exam today as the conference wraps up, and to the rest - enjoy the talks!
