In this session, we’ll take a practical example, and develop it from a quick one-liner into a re-usable component. Along the way, we’ll discuss the choices we make as developers, and how they affect both how we develop and the results we produce. The goal of the session is to inspire developers to create beautiful software.
In this talk, we’ll take a look at some of the basic concepts of cryptography and how to implement them in PHP. Additionally, we’ll discuss the common problems that developers face and how best to solve them. Finally, we’ll dispel some of the myth and rumors around password hashing and how (and more importantly why) to do it properly.

Cal Evans is putting on an online conference on December 21st as part of his 'Day Camp 4 Developers' conferences. Here's a lineup of the talks:
- Designing Beautiful Software�� Matthew Weier O�Phinney
Software is a craft. Like any craft, the software we build can be either hastily put together with little love, or well crafted for longevity. Typically in software, we look at how extensible and maintainable a system may be in order to judge its quality.

- Cryptography For The Average Developer�� Anthony Ferrara
Every developer at one point or another needs to implement some form of cryptography in one of their applications. Whether it�s hashing passwords or encrypting sensitive user data, the security requirements are daunting. Yet you don�t need to be an expert in cryptography to implement it correctly. All you need to do is understand the basics, and trust the experts.

- Javascript Best Practices & BackboneJS for the PHP Developer�-�Ryan Weaver
Does your JavaScript code always end up inside one giant jQuery document ready function? Have you heard about Backbone.js but not sure what it means to you? In this talk, we�ll learn some basic ways that we can start organizing our JavaScript to be more readable and reusable. We�ll also explore the basics of Backbone.js, learn when it�s useful, and see what we can learn from it as we develop JavaScript in our applications. We�ll focus specifically on using Backbone.js with a PHP backend, how each works together, and the challenges of having two models and sharing templates.- Your code sucks, let�s fix it.�� Rafael Dohms
How do you measure the quality of your code? Performance and testing are just one aspect of code, in order to meet deadlines and make maintenance quicker you also need your code to be readable, decoupled and generally easier to comprehend and work with. This talk will go over tips and exercises to help you identify trouble areas, refactor them and train you to write better code in future projects. Come make your code look and function better.
- Building a Firehose�� Ian Barber
More and more companies are realising they have a wealth of data available to them, or they have the opportunity to aggregate information from multiple sources in near real time. While big data and batch processing systems like Hadoop are part of the tool kit of many teams, more and more are realising that a continually updating system of pipes and filters � a fire hose � of their data is a powerful and flexible tool. In this talk we will look at the challenges of building this type of system, the patterns and techniques that can help simplify it, and the difficulties of managing such a system when it�s running.- From POX to HATEOAS, A Real Company�s Journey Building a RESTful API�- Luke Stokes
We started FoxyCart.com in 2007 and soon after slapped together some XML and called it an API. As our company and customer base grew and third-party integrations emerged, the need for a true RESTful API became our next priority. This session will tell the inspiring, ongoing story of how an ecommerce platform for developers researched and developed a new API from scratch using as many RESTful principles as possible.

It's a great lineup with some awesome speakers. It's $50 and should be well worth it.--

Hah, that would help, wouldn't it?
It's online, and they have where you can watch it live or grab the videos later.

I don’t have all the details yet, but I would like to use Room E292 for use to those who are interested in coming for the event. My company, Manz Web Designs, LLC, is hoping to sponsor an office party ticket and take donations that will be then used to extend our library or something like that. I also would like to give part of the money to NSCC for being willing to allow us to use the room, not only for this event, but for all our meetings… they have never, to my knowledge, charged us a dime for the usage.
I would like to invite all in our group to come out for the event so we can learn together and get to know one another. Any other interested parties are encouraged to come as well, so let your friends know and let’s see if we can make the room full… maybe we could move to the auditorium at the college if enough people come.
I plan to contact Tony Hills (Programming Instructor at NSCC) and have any interested students to come.
I am open to any ideas.
Thanks,
Bud

If you do host an all day event to participate in this online conference - in downtown Toledo or at NSCC or anywhere else - be sure to add it to http://tol-calagator.org/ and do some promotion of it. I will help with tweets from @Tech_Toledo.
Hi Roger,
Sounds good. Maybe we can talk about it more then.
