My First PHP 5 Class Contribution at phpclasses.org February 13, 2007
Posted by ordinarywebguy in Javascript, MySQL, OOP, PHP, PHP 5.4 comments
Entry: MySQL Data Abstraction Layer Class and Data Manipulation Class
After getting bored working with PHP 4 and deciding to get my hands dirty with PHP 5 and its OOP capability, it got me to have the classes and example and contribute it at phpclasses.org. I would have to say that its worth messing with it as you’ve be able to define the ranges or scopes of your classes, methods and its properties. Whew! I also have to say that I missed a lot of features of PHP 5 since we’re still using PHP 4 at work. And what I did was to convert the said classes to PHP 4 to be able to ulitize it. There’s only a minor modifications to it, removed access specifiers (public, private and protected) and turn “self::” to “$this->”, “__construct” to “name of class itself” and thats it.
Anyway back to my entry, you can download it here or view demo here. I’m hoping that it’ll be approved within 12 days by phpclasses people and be able helped somebody in learning PHP 5 and OOP.
PHP Kills Java, Ruby, ASP and ASP.net??? February 2, 2007

I was reading a forum posted at Devpinoy.org and this thread came an idea to me to compare between PHP and other web programming languages and see the results of it. It seems to be great that PHP stands above. Please see screenshots below:
PHP vs. Java

PHP vs. Ruby
Link: http://googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=php&word2=ruby
PHP vs. ASP
Link: http://googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=php&word2=asp
PHP vs. ASP.net
Link: http://googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=php&word2=asp.net
Well, the stats given were just only return number results of pages containing the given keyword. I hope that the future of PHP will be same as the results given above.
Thanks to http://googlefight.com/ !!! What a nice and cool website! 
From Blogger to WordPress February 1, 2007
Posted by ordinarywebguy in Wordpress.1 comment so far
I used to blog in Blogger.com since May 2006 and my first post was about Philippine web based computer hardware/parts/peripherals buy and sell. The time that I wasn’t yet aware that WordPress.org have also their own blogging service at WordPress.com. It’s just recently that I discovered it and as a Web Developer, I found it very very very cool. There were features that wasn’t available yet in Blogger.com that I found here and makes me decide to rather use WordPress. Including the “import” of existing blogs to other blogging services but not for the New Blogger system it wasn’t yet available, hoping to grab this soon (calling the attention of WordPress people. 
). Another is the blog stat, you’ll not then subscribe to other site’s hit counter and stats services like Google Analytics and SiteMeter. Although it’s for free, it’s different when you have it already integrated. This also includes the Feed Stats. And lastly the most important to me, posting of your code/scripts which is very hard to do in Blogger.com and which is at ease with WordPress. Additionally, organizing your posts/entries by creating its proper categories.
Well, those features really suites me for now. Thanks to WordPress People! I just then welcome myself here! Yehey! I got my new blog. 
And here’s a funny link between WordPress.com and Blogger.com: http://googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=WordPress.com&word2=Blogger.com. Check this out. I guess batch of bloggers will then switch to WordPress like me.
