The new facebook chat recently launched, as in this morning. As I was greeted with a “hello! facebook chat is ready to involve you more with the people you know on facebook”
I got to use the little application and its pretty amazing, its done similar to the gmail-chat with the list of people online also on the bottom bar. The interface is clean and usable, and lets you surf the website without any hiccups.
Good work facebook! Way to increase pageview times :o)

Using AJAX with PHP & MySQL

Today I started reading the book: PHP & MySQL for Dummies. I figured that since I’ve been using web services, creating websites for so long and using a group of different technologies, why not learn the underlying programming languages that make the dynamics of the web. Hence the book PHP & MySQL for Dummies helps me out. I’ll admit that I’m a dummy in the area of PHP, but I’m not that dumb, I understand the context and how the systems work.

This book should help me in learning the powers of PHP and MySQL and give me the ability to create a more customized web solutions for my clients.

Lets get this done and make it happen.
