The link below is actually being server via the OpenX Ad Server I just installed all will just the knowledge gain from a chapter and a half. Actually I was lazy and did just a text banner vice the graphic banner the book suggested.
Well I am nearly complete with my review of PHP 5 e-commerce Development by Michael Peacock. I was so engaged by the book, I forgot to post updates of my progress here on the blog. I am currently having a second set of eyes critique my work so I do not look totally incompetent writing English. It should be posted on my main site, under book reviews, some time today.
Well, I received my book from Packt sooner than expected. The pace of the book caught me off guard as I thought it would be another chapter before I hit code. More to follow as I get deeper and deeper into taking on eBay!
Here in the next few weeks I’ll be reviewing PHP 5 E-commerce Development by Michael Peacock via Packt Publishing. You can view my main page for the review here. For those who would like a taste, a sample chapter is available in PDF format.
Well I got three numbers, good for a two dollar profit off this play. Tom Cruise is laughing…
Been kind of interesting since I last posted. Played the lotto again… still nothing (but we hope that changes tonight!!), got a stomach virus or something similar so I’m still trying to enjoy life. Oh yeah, I think either the Scientologist or Operation Clambake is after me as in my few years that I’ve unofficially had an online presence (various covert sites) the shared host I’m on was target of a DDoS! This gave me a chance to mess with the wife as I told her she broke my site! I wonder what was going on? Maybe it was the Iranians as I did host a few anonymous proxy sites back in the day.
Picked up an interesting book, Pragmatic Thinking and Learning: Refactor Your Wetware and I like where it’s going, more specifically how some people external to our industry (programming) see us programmers as a replaceable commodity vice a hard to replace asset (not a direct quote). I thought it was just the government sector that viewed contractors as a position and not a person. Granted some work you can swapped bodies and there is no performance hit (I’ve done those jobs 
) but programming and application development is a different ball game. I’m almost half way through the book and perhaps I’ll do a review of it when I’m done.
Getting ready to move back to Florida so we’ll see if I resurface (mother has ADSL bleh).
-Fight the power
Paid my idiot tax again. I’m debating on what to sacrifice to Tom Cruise in order to win… we’ll see tonight at six!
Wheee!!
Well, next to Dexter that is. The TV has been stuck on Spike the past few days and I’m watching 1000 ways to die .
It’s as if Darwin read my wish list and brought me a TV show that’s worth watching.
I have to update my list of things to thank Tom Cruise for as without it/them life would be dull.
Thank Your Tom Cruise for:
Asian People (I rove them to death)
People of Walmart
Cookies (as in ‘Heavy Persons’)
Midgets/Hobbits/Little People (The best waiters(esses))
1000 Ways to Die (All of the people featured)
Yay!!
Something went right, my older Alienware is alive again (just a Windows problem) thought now I have to wait for SP2 to download and install. Yes I had to roll back that far. But now I can get back on with developing MURL with the CodeIgniter Framework.
I don’t think the wife’s netbook could handle the workload, the ATOM processor was never meant for that, I think it can barely handle Flash! Hopefully MURL will be up and running soon. MURL was an experiment in writing a URL shortner (if only I would have developed this before!!). Yes I know there are a hundred and one out there but I think I have developed a unique algorithm for generating keys. MURL itself with be open source but the algorithm with not be, got to have something to sell to Google!
Why Why Tom Cruise do you hate me! Have I not sacrificed enough organic bean sprouts to please you?!
As it typically goes I was one number off on like every play it seems. I had two of five on one and four of five by being one off including the power ball!
I’m beginning to believe that Tom Cruise does not exist.
- Pause Rant…. it will be back
