Pet Pixels

Last night I gave a talk at the monthly PHP London meeting all about XDebug and kCacheGrind - I only just noticed I made an earlier post on here which lamented the lack of awareness about these excellent tools. The talk went OK after a late start, and took rather longer than I though it would. I didn't have a very well defined end point so it kind of petered out, but it seemed to go down OK, and there were some good questions. The MacBook worked great after I remembered to pick up the right kind of video adapter... You can download a PDF of the presentation here. Marcus Baker's talk on "Is agile development right for you?" was entertaining and thought provoking. I had some great conversations beforehand, and I completely failed to talk to Demian after he kindly bought me a beer! Having two Marcus B's around can get confusing too... Somehow I didn't get home until about 2am.
