PHP frameworks overview
PHP is one of the most popular scripting languages around and when used properly it can become web developers best friend. Newcomers to web development are usualy drawn to PHP because the results of their work can be seen fairly quick, with little or no programming background. As tempting as writing everything yourself is, it is not always the best idea. Unless you have a complete grasp of the inner workings of the PHP core, your attempts in writing a good framework will fail sooner or...

Fluid length rounded corner buttons
We've all come accross a design that dictated that the form buttons should have rounded corners (especially in the web 2.0 era).

It's a snake, it's a snake!
Wrong. It's THE snake! Python. I've been flirting with this programing language (and you thought I was writing about Monty Python eh?) for quite some time now, and've now decided to dive in at the deep end. I've seen a few nice projects made with Python and so it found it's way on my to-learn list (wich is actually quite lenghty as you can imagine). So right now I'm reading Python In A Nutshell and liking it so far.
