BarCampLeeds

Monday, November 19th, 2007

I’ve already blogged about the event for work but since people are more likely to find my own site I thought I’d mention it here as well.

My presentation “symfony: PHP doesn’t have to be crap… and how we used it to bring Web 2.0 to Edge Hill University” seemed to go okay from my point of view - I’ll leave the glowing reviews to members of the audience!

Met a bunch of cool people and heard about lots of interesting things that they’re doing. Etap Hotel gave me two rooms that hadn’t been cleaned - I must be unlucky as the same thing happened at IWMW.

Okay, you can stop now
