Joomla! And Incompetent Programmers

Posted by: John in Untagged  on Nov 29, 2008

Over the past few days I have been attempting to migrate my Joomla 1.0 & SMF website to Joomla 1.5 along with Fireboard. I decided to upgrade Joomla for the obvious reason - it is outdated, and I decided to migrate away from SMF due to the licensing issues between Joomla and SMF. These issues cause any extensions connecting the two pieces of software, for example a bridge, to be illegal (so much

Ext JS or Ext GWT

Posted by: Jordan in Programming, AJAX on Nov 18, 2008

If you are a web developer and haven't seen Ext framework you should take a look.  The widgets offered can allow you to create rich internet applications which will eventually eliminate the need for client applications.  The libraries make fetching  an XML document and immediately presenting the data to the user without refreshing the page trivial (AJAX).  In this respect, it is a very similar

Procedural Programming vs Object Oriented Programming

Posted by: orjan in Programming, Object Oriented Programming, Design Patterns on Nov 09, 2008

Just giving a few thaugts on this subject, sitting up and can't sleep, 3:37am...

To start with, I mainly code PHP, just to let you get a feeling on what I'm talking about in some ways.

I know the basics in OOP, that's not a problem. I've written a few classes here and there, when I have found it useful. The problem I have is that in most cases, I find the OOP less useful than procedural programming

eXtreme Programming

Posted by: Jordan in Programming on Nov 04, 2008

In several of the books I've read it has mentioned eXtreme Programming (also called XP) so I decided to do some research on it.  XP is a programming methodology that advanced programmers follow (and many companies).  Entire books have been written on the idea including one from the original inventor of XP. 

The idea behind it is simply genius.  XP gives developers a set of rules that should be

AdStar Ad Control Panel

Posted by: Jaan in Untagged  on Nov 01, 2008

Hey there..

Want to know what I have been done lately? Well here it is..
Some months ago I was speaking with Jordan and I asked from him, what should I do, what should I create and he told me to do something useful. I saw some banners on our site and then suddenly it came to my head, I should make an Ad control panel for sites, for those who want to make money by selling ad spots on their

A Virtual Processor?

Posted by: Fozzy in Untagged  on Nov 01, 2008

I am currently working on a stable version of an old piece of software I developed about a year ago called, "B973-SGMI", which stands for B973-Sound-Graphics-Media-Innovator. It's all pretty self explanitory, but it is actually a virtual processor, a new wave of virtual technology that can cleanup and run your computer faster! Unlike ReadyBoost and all those other "memory-only" boosters, the

Joomla 1.0 End of Life (EOL)

Posted by: Jordan in Joomla on Oct 31, 2008

It has been a long time coming but the Joomla Team has annouced the EOL for Joomla 1.0.x support and development.  Their plan is to stop development by July 22nd, 2009.  This means that no security updates will be released for Joomla 1.x series after this date.  While it doesn't neccessitate the need for you to upgrade, as a Joomla 1.x user, it does mean any new security vulnerabilies will be

Linux portable distribution

Posted by: ooisootuck in Untagged  on Oct 26, 2008

Hi,

I came across a Linux distribution that is portable and persistent called Slax. I have been looking for such a distribution for quite sometime, and I found it.

Slax allows you to install the OS on a portable flash drive save changes on the same flash drive. Of course, you can choose to install it on CD or even on hard drive.

You can find more information about Slax at

Google Web Toolkit

Posted by: John in Untagged  on Oct 26, 2008

Ever since the web has ventured into its newest phase known as Web 2.0, one of the attributes web developers have started to focus on is the interface in which users interact. Gone are the days of static web pages built in html, table based layouts, and infamous page refresh. Developers have made every attempt to drift away from the old look and feel and have started to concentrate on the

OO Life

Posted by: amrosama in Untagged  on Oct 24, 2008

I was sitting in the back of a bus on my way to college, the I started thinking about a joke I’ve heard in codecall that says “I want to change the world but they wont give me the source code”.

Then I asked myself what would the source code of the world look like?

Object oriented theory stroke me hard, people sleep, walk, eat, and process food the same way , so when they want to
