IWMW2009
The Institutional Web Management Workshop (IWMW 2009) will be held at the University of Essex from Tuesday 28th to Thursday 30th July 2009.
This is generally a great chance to catch up with what’s going on in the Higher Education web world. Oh and there’s great food and lots of booze too, not that I’m swayed by such things of course…

Flomo iphone app

A few weeks ago I decided to start playing around with iPhone app development. It would, I thought, be a relatively straightforward thing. Even small children could do it. But what to choose as a test project? Perhaps something stupid that made some kind of farty noise each time you shook your iPhone? Nah… build
Beginning iPhone Development: Exploring the iPhone SDK
about 1 year ago - 2 comments
iPhone development isn’t really all that much fun, but the end results can be very cool. Dave Mark and Jeff LaMarche have written a really nice introduction which makes the whole process seem just about manageable. Almost cool and quirky even. Importantly, it successfully captures the key to the iPhone’s success as a development platform:
Drupal in perspective

Drupal prides itself on its community aspect. And so it should as a truly open source system. One of the good things to come out of this is the principle that dissenting voices should be given a platform. Hopefully what they say gets taken on board too. A talk titled ‘Why I hate Drupal’ at

If you want to get at all serious about taking Drupal beyond a simple installation, Pro Drupal Development is going to be a massive help to you.

Using Drupal by Angela Byron

Using Drupal is a great little book if you’re just starting out with Drupal, and want to know which modules could be useful for you. If you’re getting into true development stuff and want to play around with Drupal a bit more, the excellent Pro Drupal Development by John VanDyk would be a much better choice.

Cross-site request forgery (XSRF). It’s something that’s becoming a big issue in internet security, and yet is still relatively poorly understood by many developers. If you don’t already know what it is, you can find an excellent introduction in wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSRF In a nutshell, anything on your website is a security risk if it lets

about 1 year ago - 11 comments
I’ve recently been trialling Coda, Panic’s web development environment for Mac OSX. It currently costs $99 (about £65 at current rates) per licence, and offers a fully-featured 15-day trial before you burn your money. The version I’m looking at here is 1.6.2.

So, we’re into day 2 of the IWMW 2008 conference at Aberdeen. Day 1 passed with much alcohol, dancing, Aberdonian ‘furry boots’, oh and some web stuff too. I think the highlight was an excellent opening talk by Derrick McClure from the Centre for Linguistic Research at Aberdeen. It was a novel idea to have

I’ve recently been looking at the essential (ie why isn’t it included in the core?) symfony plugin sfGuard. It offers are really nice, simple way of building a simple user, role, and permissions system into your symfony app.
