I want to give everybody a quick update on what is going on with Geeks On PHP and what to expect in the near future. As we talked about on our last episode we are putting together a series of podcasts focused on OOP in PHP. Unfortunately due to time constraints, work overload and other things out of our control we have had to push things back a bit. The series is still going to happen and we are excited to have Mitchell Hislop who is a friend of mine and a very talented developer / social media expert joining us for the series.
As soon as we are able to settle on dates to record I will provide updates via Twitter and our Facebook page letting people know what to expect. Thank you for your patience and we look forward to releasing a great series on OOP!
Follow both Stephen & Myself on Twitter and also subscribe via Tunes.
