Debrief d.Construct
Now that I’m back at work I’ve probably got just enough time to write up my experiences at d.Construct 2006, so here goes…
Firstly, I’d like to say a great big nefarious hello to all the developers and designers I met on the day, and a special hello and thanks to Graham Bancroft, Ben Ward, Steve Marshall and Fatty - it’s nice to put faces to the names at last guys!
I enjoyed most of the presentations although some more than others. I’m not going to review them in depth here - I’ll just outline my thoughts instead. You should definitely listen to the d.Construct 2006 podcasts (although the presentations themselves don’t appear to be live yet) and formulate your own opinions.

So I’m off to d.Construct 2006 tomorrow and I’m getting quite excited. I’m looking forward to hearing about API’s and webservices; at putting faces to people I chat with regularly via mailing lists; at attending Jeremy’s Microformats picnic and generally being at home with my peers.
If you’re reading this and are attending d.Construct, please feel free to come over and talk shop to me - that’s one of the reasons I’m going! For recognition purposes, I look like this (I’m the one in the shirt, not the one in the dress). In case that’s not enough I’ll probably be wearing a black t-shirt with “Columbian Street Party” written on it.
Anyway, I have preparations to make and work to do (who’d have thunk it?), so hopefully I’ll see you there!
Object-Oriented PHP Part 4: PHP5’s Improved Features
After a welcome break, over the late summer public holiday here in England, here’s the final part in my object-oriented PHP series. Sorry about the rather extended pause since ”Part 3: Taking Relationships Further”.
Having already looked at definition, relationships and taking those relationships further, I’m going to look at how PHP5’s new Object Model introduces more advanced functionality.

Following on from my posts ”Object-Oriented Concepts” and ”Object-Oriented Javascript”, I’m going to take a look at OOP in PHP.
In ”Part 1: Definition” we took a look at defining objects and classes in PHP. In ”Part 2: Relationships” we looked at linking our objects and classes together. In part 3 I’m going to add to those relationships by looking at visibility, polymorphism and the scope resolution operator.

Following on from my posts ”Object-Oriented Concepts” and ”Object-Oriented Javascript”, I’m going to take a look at OOP in PHP.
In ”Part 1: Definition” we took a look at defining objects and classes in PHP. In part 2 I’m going to look at the most important part of any object-oriented system - the relationships.
