Catching up, Moving on...

Howdy how!
Im considering taking "Flash Developer" off my blog title :D. Lately I've been doing more PHP and CSS than ever. I just finished my first site using the CodeIgniter Framework which I absolutely love. For a while I was getting into RUBY on RAILS but that was fizzled out. CodeIgniter uses the MVC pattern which is was one of the things I liked about RoR. Oh and just in case you are wondering from my last post on CODA, I ended up moving to using TextMate + TextExpander + Cyberduck(ftp). I'm in web developer heaven :D

Check out CodeIgniter sometime.

NetTuts did a great series on it.

Heres the site I just finished, its CodeIgniter based. The site has a custom CMS built into it which allows the client to add pictures and manage testimonials easily. This was a way better solution than having a full blown CMS, since most small businesses don't really need all those features.

I have A.D.D with code. I really want to learn Android but feel like I need to go back and get some Java Training before I can understand it. So off I go... next stop Java?
Here a tute i found that explains bitwise operators really well ( I think you can apply this to FLASH as well, plus its just cool to understand binary :P )
