    India will become number 1 source of PHP developers soon

    Summary:

    The number of Indian PHP developers has been growing at a large pace in the last few years, when compared to other countries. A few years ago, India was just one of the top ten countries with more PHP developers. Now India is number 2 and is almost surpassing United States, which is still number 1.

    This article presents a reflection about why this growth happened just in the latest years, as well what it means for the PHP world.

    Sandeep Kadam, a leader of the PHP community in India gave an interview to help clarifying this subject.

  • HTML 5 for a better Web (27 days ago)

    Posted on: 2009-07-02
    Summary: The HTML 5 will definitely contribute to a better Web. Despite its specification is still being drafted, several browsers like Firefox 3.5, Internet Explorer 8, Safari 4, Chrome 2 and Opera 10 already implement a significant part of the current HTML 5 specification.

    This article reviews a bit of the history of how we got to HTML 5 and presents an overview of the enhancements that HTML 5 introduces to provide a better Web.

    It also presents a reflection about whether HTML 5 will render useless browser extensions like Flash, Silverlight and Java.
