    This video lecture, transcripted by, Eric Miraglia helps web developers to understand the meaning of frontend development.

    Quote

    Another way to think about it is that frontend engineers tell browsers what to do. We’d all love it if that were easier, but there’s such a diversity of browsers, and browser capabilities, that figuring out how to instruct them to do what we want, is our job. An even simpler answer might be to say we’re responsible for “view source”. So, regardless of how your organization or your team is structured, the frontend engineer is responsible for everything that gets sent over the wire to the user’s browser. So if you “view source” on any page, everything you see there is the result of decisions made by frontend engineers.

    Zend Framework Zend_Db tutorial

    Very good and pretty short tutorial about how to use on it’s basics the Zend_Db module. For everyone starting with Zend Framework it will be interesting to know how to connect and use a database in his application.

    This kind of short tutorials are very usefull and sometimes are more usefull than a long detailed tutorials or documentation pages. This gives a very quick start with Zend_Db, than anyone can make it’s own researches into the docs.

    Highly recommended!

    As mentioned in YDN Theater:

    Andy Hunt from Pragmatic Programmers tells us about his next experiments in becoming a better programmer. His latest work isn’t about installing a better IDE or using a new programming language. Instead, Andy is tuning his brain. Andy has some great advice to improve your Wetware, and suggests that it’s the most important thing of all to tweak.
