I won't pretend to understand the logic which dictates that the first day of any PHP conference must not be counted as an actual day. Nevertheless, here we are on day two/one (Infinity?) of the php|works conference in Atlanta, GA. I was decidedly less energetic than yesterday morning, but still managed to get up in time for Andrei's keynote presentation "PHP6: A lolcat odyssey" which was wonderfully presented and frakingly misaligned to the synergy of my third presentation (scheduled for tomorrow morning) "PHP::$unicode->i18n;"... That's okay though, I was planning to steal most of it from Andrei anyway...

         I spent the next hour learning about "Maintainable PHP Code" (for the most part lamentedly reminiscing on the fact that I've often written quite unmaintainable code), then rolled straight into Derick's presentation on "7 myths about PHP". Somewhere between then and 2:30 I managed to finish my "How PHP Ticks" presentation which I expected to be a dry fraking snore-fest, but actually came out quite cleanly if I do say so myself.
