To take a quick break from tracker talk,
The past few days I've been working on trying to develop a web application to shorten URLS.
Yes, I know tinyurl already exists, and I also have heard of the other url shortening app that's been released.
I took this project on because I want to learn php and basically just sharpen my development and logical thinking skills. It looks like This will just be a couple of php pages with a database in the back storing everything.
It's been interesting going from ASP to PHP. To be honest, things just seem to be more intuitive using PHP. The language seems just easier to use and more logical. For example, connection strings to databases in ASP can be long, big, and most people have to take some time to look at in order to get how it is put together. PHP? It's a simple function with the database host, username, and pass. That's it.
So far, I'm liking this.
Any good designers want to come up with a sweet UI for the Admin Interface?
