Re: [php-49] Those of us with less than 5 years experience

[Weston McNamee]

I'm sending this email to both the meetup group and seattle-php Google group in case we have people that haven't joined the Google group yet.

I'd like to get a general consensus of where and when we should do this meeting. Please take this survey so I can start planning:

Thanks,

I created a google group! This is a cheaper (free) alternative to creating a separate meetup group. Plus the original meetup group will still be a valuable resource for all of us.

Hi all,

I've been following this thread with great interest.  I'd love to be involved in this somehow.  I only have a few year's worth of PHP under my belt, having unfortunately hitched my cart to Vignette technology for the last 8 years.  And now, no one uses Vignette anymore.  But there are so many frameworks, APIs, types of approaches, that I'm looking for a good road map for myself as I code applications.  An approach that will really help me learn as I go....  But it would help if I heard what's working for others who are in the same boat.  Anyway, right now I'm doing little PHP form-based web apps, some Google API interfacing and some WordPress development....

Thanks,

Karen
