Quick tip - if you haven’t already, check out the Pro::PHP Podcast. Some great shows there, published as mp3 - usually around 30-35 minuts in length but without visuals, it’s easy to multi-task.
Particularily recommend listening to the interview with Andi Gutmans - it’s officially unofficial - PHP6 by the end of this year ;).
Pro::PHP is thanks to host Marcus Whitey (blog), who’s voice has a remarkably calming effect on my 2 month old son (was getting desperate this evening - worked like a charm), and reporter Chris Cornutt (of phpdeveloper).

This is uncanny. I actually came across this podcast just this weekend. I can’t believe it’s been going since May 2005…
I wonder how I missed it.

wowsers. Thanks Harry! Glad I’m a safe sedative for infants. Wish my voice did that for my 6 and 4 year olds.

2 months old and already being trained in PHP. Harry you’ll be able to have him take over your work and retire before PHP version 10 is out ;)

Marcus:
When my mother-in-law sang to her children at bedtime, they fell blissfully asleep. When my father-in-law sang, the chilren fell asleep in self-defense.
Maybe you are having the same effect?

Your voice is definately calming. It all went horribly wrong when that Shifflet fellow joined the discussion though ;)
(joke!)

LOL @ “that shifflet fellow joined”
I’ve been listening to it for quite a while, I’m surprised so many are just hearing about it?
Good idea Harry ;-)

[…] I’ve tried this php podcast and I really didn’t find it useful.. There are tons of other open source software that makes podcasting a lot easier. Filed under: Podcasting Equipement, Podcast Directories, Tutorials — create @ 9:05 pm […]

Harry,
Are there plans for releasing updates to the 2003 PHP Anthology books?
Thanks
