- New blog category "Community related"

  I invented a new category in my weblog. Though I had very few categories in
  my blog, today I added a new one. It happens more and more often, that I
  post stuff that's interessting (IMO) for the PHP community, but not directly
  related to PHP. Until now I posted these entries either in PEAR or PHP,
  depending on which category fitted more.

- "protected $var", has won by far.

  The PEAR community has decided on how to deal with protected attributes and
  methodes regarding the PEAR coding standards for PHP5. In the past private
  members of a class were prefixed by an underscore (_), the question now was,
  how to deal with protected members, since they're not private nor public.

- At the pulse of time

  As mostly everybody knows, I'm feeling really geek and I definitly like geek
  toys.

- Best Microsoft bug ever...

  Hair Color of the "Person" Icon for a User Group Becomes Gray If the Group
  Contains More Than 500 Users...

- Switching off referrer stats

  I switched off the referrer stats of Serendipty again, because of referrer
  spam. This kind of spam really sucks. Take a look at the first Webalizer
  stats if July for my page:

- Nominate me for the best blog! :)

  The German magazine "Die Zeit" in cooperation with "Blogg.de" casts votes
  for the best national weblog. I hope that (even if written in English), mine
  becomes the best in the category "Fachliche Blogs" (technical blogs)
  *LOL``*``.

- Ad-sensed

  May page became ad-sensed. I recently got my verification to put Google's
  ad-sense advertisment onto my website. This should help me to reduce the
  cost generated by my server and stuff. Hope that works a bit.

- Linuxtag - My photos complete

  I completed my gallery of the Linuxtag. They are structured per day and
  there are some amazing shots from talks, from the demonstration and from the
  social live of the LAMP Area people.

- Spiegel-Online: 1000 people demonstrating against software patents

  As promised, Spiegel-Online published an article about our demonstration on
  thursday.

- Linuxtag - Day 4

  Sad but true, the last day of Linuxtag 2004 has arrived... Yesterday we've
  been with a few people to the Linuxtag social event. It took place in the
  local open-air bath, with a live band and free grill food. Pretty nice
  organized, especially that the Linuxtag wifi connection was available there.
