Africa's OSS/Linux All Blogs

I'm busy reading above mentioned book
Lots of good advice, techniques to save you development time
Highly recommended

I like Cookbook titles most, real world problems and solutions ;-)

PHP is very popular for number of reasons

easy to write
cheap to host
C language based

Python is replacing Perl as Swiss army knife

easy syntax
very powerful
libraries for almost anything

Result ?

Combine both and you can create killer internet applications today !

I have been exploring web sites written in PHP
What I saw is jaw dropping
ASP.NET has serious run for the money they charge !
The fact that you can host cheaply on Linux is also a huge adoptation factor
