We are giving away a free online registration to this year’s [url=http://daycamp4developers.com/]daycamp4developers[/url] generously provided by Elizabeth Naramore!
Come on by, talk PHP, share your opinions, and enter to win!
$44 / yr alone is a great price–their issues always have a few stories I want to read. Now that they are throwing in their entire digital library of back issues–that just makes it even more enticing.
I know I don’t seem to have the time to read either, but it’s certainly cheaper than dragging my backside to ZendCon this year.
Happy reading!

I’ll let them post any links here, etc if they want to reference anything. Otherwise, thank you for the discussion.
I also had a great time delivering my mini-talk on Apache Solr. While, I admit–I’ve been using it just long enough to be a dangerous fanboy, but I’m certainly no expert.
We had a fun time diving into the various aspects of usage, implementation, care and feeding–a great time.
I’ve also uploaded the [url=”http://www.kcpug.org/doghouse/2011_may/kcpug-ApacheSolr.pdf”]Apache SOLR Slides[/url] on the website.
Thanks everyone for the great turnout. See you all next month at the Buzzz!

The PHPExcel talk will be very similar to the one I did this month here at the PUG. And, the Solr one may be May’s talk (unless someone else volunteers). But, there will be free cookies!!
Oh, and you can check out all the other [url=”https://secure.touchnet.com/C20110_ustores/web/store_cat.jsp?STOREID=24&CATID=395&SINGLESTORE=true”]Technology classes[/url] or find anything that floats your boat from the [url=http://www.jccc.edu/freecollegeday/index.html]Free College Day[/url] website.

Plenty of other great things too.
Finally, the group let me give a talk on [url=http://phpexcel.codeplex.com]PHP_Excel[/url]. Feel free to find the [url=http://kcpug.org/doghouse/2011_apr/PHP_Excel.pdf]slides in PDF here[/url]. (sorry Noah–but should be virus free. 🙂 )
