Quote - Yeah, my main interest in flash is interaction design, I don't think I'd design a website in it--flash websites annoy me, to be honest, and I really like javascript.  I didn't really get into php until last year, when I found out you can do object oriented stuff with it--I didn't realize it had that before, I swear none of the sites I've seen online talk about it!  I found out that it had objects by wandering through the computer section of a bookstore and seeing a book titled "Object Oriented PHP" (which of course had to come home with me), and now I like the language much better 😉

oh defenitely, javascript RULES in comparison to flash. Though im sure many actionscript fans will want to ritually burn me for saying so.
yea I ran into that too! I was just readin around on php.net when i found out all kindsa cool stuff! If only I had known before that you can throw and catch in php!
My OOP-roots lay in Flash Actionscript though.... :-/ so u might understand how little quality my background education of OOP is haha. I mostly just learn through trial and error. I'm a big fan of using templates, modules, classes, and custom-made engines for stuff like easy form making, easy pdf conversion, etc. etc. Whatever i can build to speed up the repetitive programming processes in a way that's both flexible and fast to use during programming.
I guess php must be quite weird if you're comming from more of a C-background or something like that. However i love how its great for quickly making nice little scripts.
Next thing for me to get my head around: Variable variables... (ran across them in someone else's code, im clueless how they work!)

That ubiquitous computing stuff sounds interesting! I wonder where the good old pc and other products based on computer technology will merge... PC turns Mediacentre, PSP Gaming console turns mp3/movie player, phone turns pda, pda turns navigation unit, Wii turns internet browser (well... to some degree anyways, i wouldnt write long forum posts with it haha), xbox turns almost into a full-blown pc. Somewhere along the line we're going to only recognize things as a computer if they're labeled 'pc' by the store they're sold in...
