PHP and Databases:
mglazer: Have you seen metabase?
On a somewhat related note.... Pear::DB is slow, real slow. Writing my own helper DB class and dropping Pear::DB seems to have improved performance by a factor of ten.
Everybox.com:
I love the Tigris.org style sheets. Everybox.com is being built with it as a base.
Codecon:
Codecon is coming up at the end of Feb. I haven't been to the bay area in quite some time and I'm already excited.
