PHP/ZendCon Trivia on twitter
Aug 05, 2008 @ 14:31:13

As the time for this year's Zend/PHP Conference & Expo grows closer, there's more and more talk about who'll be there and what will be talked about. The Zend Developer Zone is taking the opportunity to do a little looking back - and having some fun in the process. They're hosting a ZendCon trivia contest for some fabulous prizes.

Let's have a little fun, shall we? Here is what we'll do. I'll ask ZendCon or PHP trivia via twitter (http://twitter.com/zendcon) and the first person to email me the correct answer at contest@zend.com will win a prize.

Up for grabs are ZendCon trading cards, books, elePHPants and copies of Zend Studio. Remember, you have to be following zendcon on twitter to get the questions and answers must be submitted via email (no DM, IM, tweets or IRC answers will count).

Lukas Smith's Blog:
Small emPHPower update
Jul 09, 2008 @ 12:57:29

Lukas Smith has posted a quick emPHPower update to his blog today concerning recent thoughts and progress he's made on the initiative.

I hope this all will lead to a few people to step up and really start getting involved deeply in emPHPower. Aside from this Sebastian has handed in a BOF session on emPHPower for OSCON. I hope this one will work out.

A spot has also been set aside at the upcoming Zend/PHP Conference & Expo's unconference for someone to speak on the subject and to get a feel for things from the business perspective. Lukas has also been working up more details about the effort and has set up a mailing list to help with collaboration.
