Bureaucracy, politics, lawyers and money overcome. ILoveJackDaniels.com, one of the biggest cheat sheet provider for us developers in this world, it’s gone and become something else. David cheat sheets already helped me a lot, so let’s give the guy a help back. Check out his new site and the history about the domain name issue: http://www.addedbytes.com/blog/what-happened-to-ilovejackdaniels-dot-com/
The Shift (or Shiflett) to PHP
Symfony, PHP Big Name Sites, Frameworks, PHP October 29th, 2007
Chris Shiflett comments on the recent James McGlinn of del.icio.us to move the the Symfony, a PHP (it’s dynamite) framework.
In addition to mentioning that most pillars of Web 2.0 are written in PHP:
Flickr , Facebook , Digg , del.icio.us , Wikipedia
He goes on to say the Ruby guys are limp wristed fart sniffers….in so many words.

PHP engine Easter eggs
PHP Big Name Sites September 10th, 2007
I came across a post on slashdot that PHP installs with easter eggs.
The E-Eggs are listed on Chris Shifflett’s blog.
Chris suggests that they are a good trick for finding out if sites are using PHP, perhaps sites that might want to hide that for some reason like the creator of Ruby on Rails, 37signals.com.
I tried this on the RubyOnRails.org site, no luck.
Here is one from this server: http://tiredrobot.com/?=PHPE9568F35-D428-11d2-A769-00AA001ACF42
On the same slashdot post, a post also stated that the following big name sites all used PHP:
Disney, IBM, AT&T, MTV
I’m off to test out the eggs….
