Podcast interview with Andi Gutmans

January 30th, 2006

I enjoyed Friday’s pro::PHP podcast interview with Andi Gutmans. With a name like pro::PHP how can I not like it? :) This was a less formal presentation than the Zend Framework webcast. Perhaps surprisingly informal for Andi, at least at the end. I thought Marcus Whitney did a great job selecting and asking questions. There were some technical difficulties in the live version. I hope those are worked out for the next broadcast, which I am looking forward to.

Now, the question is early February, or late February?

    I thought it was really a good interview too, and had the same question — when in February?

    The only one negative I heard was that he said he didn’t think that the PHP object model needed any more work, as I think it needs some cleanup and a few more bits. Perhaps you should send him a link to your Culture of Object entry. ;)

    If I had the answer I would have mentioned it on the Webcast. It’s not easy to get software out of the door, but I am striving for mid-February (but don’t shoot me if it’s later than that :)

    Hey man, I know I’m late mentioning this. But thanks for the kind words, we work hard on the show and I’m glad you liked it.

    Hypothesis of an overlying trend: Over time, fewer of the people who search for “php” and “ajax” are using Google to do it.
