Web services have finally got a blog! Well, they’ve had one before but this time it’s going to get maintained and looked after with a bit of TLC 
It’s a team blog so friends of mine, please bare that in mind before posting comments! I’ll be posting about all sorts of work related developments and technologies and I’ll reference the more interesting ones from here too.
With more sites dedicated to symfony including Trac moving to a new domain and symfony-forge coming on stream I’ve found searching for symfony things is a bit more tricky - Google’s returning results all over the place. So I’ve created a Google Co-op search engine for symfony.

The idea of SymfonyCamp is being mooted on the symfony mailing lists at the moment. Sounds like a good idea to me and it seems to have worked in other open source areas. It would be good to find out if any of the Sensio guys or the rest of the symfony core team are able to fit it into their diaries as I’m sure it would be good to have them involved.
Just watched the joint broadcast from the BBC, Sky News, al-Jazeera and CNN. Really good to see four big news organisations coming out publicly to support the message. The day news organisations scale back their broadcasts, even the ones we don’t agree with, will be a very sad day indeed.
For anyone who thinks that juggling three balls is easy! Just came across this video of Chris Bliss:
