On his blog, Chris Shiflett has posted his summary of the Zend/PHP Conference, Day 3 today.

As expected, I wasn't able to keep up with blogging during the conference very well. I do want to mention Michael Radwin's talk, PHP at Yahoo.

Michael made some interesting points regarding security. For example, they use libcurl rather than enable allow_url_fopen, because (among other things) this makes auditing code easier - you have something to search for.

He also goes into a few more specifics from the talk, mostly concering Yahoo's stats and how they're using PHP. He notes too (and I agree, this is cool) that they allow the developers access to the data Yahoo provides not only through a hook, but also access to the raw data...

Also, be sure to check out his gallery of pictures from the conference.
