I started doing php on a fury, to prove that php was better than jsp, no flames, and I dont want to hurt anyone. At that time I just had experience in perl cgi, and wanted to switch somehow, due to the hype php was getting. My first project was a fully written community site just for the hero honda cbz users, since we had a handful in our neighbourhood. Well it was real tough, when starting with a personal project, but I myself being the project owner, I could decide on what features and where to cut corners. The biggest lifesaver was the dynamic function reference at http://php.net, which I had stated to rsync to my office once a week longback. And to admit it, once done it was a piece of hell. From then on there was no turning back. Currently I am mostly doing code reviews, guiding new recruits and doing R&D. -- Jiju Thomas Mathew Technology Officer, Saturn Systemwares Pvt Ltd Gayathri, Technopark, Trivandrum, Kerala, India Mob: 91 94470 47989 Tel : +91 471 3255001 http://www.saturn.in
