Thursday, November 8. 2007IIS7 The Leap of Faith
In an effort to learn more about IIS (which a number of my students and contracting contacts seem to use), I have decided to challenge myself: To design, build, and launch a PHP based site, and receive at least 1,000 unique visitors a day by Feb 28, 2008, served from an IIS7 server.

FFAQ (Fake Frequently Asked Questions)To learn about IIS7, it's all well and good to shout "apache is better, faster, more secure and free" then stick your head in the sand, but I'd like to know what's happening on the other side of the fence. This way I will be in a better position to help students, and contracts with IIS issues. Likely neither, I lack a development machine running windows. I do most of my fun coding on the couch on a mac laptop. I could use the testing server I mentioned, but I don't want to sit in the office at a desk during my free time. So likely Komodo & Zend Studio. I could buy a crappy laptop rather than a crappy desktop but: I want to do performance testing which needs a real hard drive, and they're more expensive. I'm not spending hours coding in parallels unless my MBP gets an upgrade. Not unless it tastes remarkably like vodka I'm open to suggestions. Also open to suggestions, I'm leaning towards drinking. In order for questions to be asked frequently, the topic must first be presented. Any time you see a FAQ on a just launched page, the questions were made up, not asked frequently. Comments

bla bla , about the FFAQ .
those questions you ask yourself , that what make the FAQ so Frequently .
Hey, interesting project. I will be following it closely. This will give you clear points of comparison between both technologies.
Good Luck
sounds like fun to me!
 Let me know if you have any questions!

I'm working on a side project (no, not that one) with a friend, and I just caught myself following some really bad practices (and I fixed an SQL Injection vulnerability, oh my!). I was doing something that appears pretty benign: I'm letting users rate co

It is tiresome attempting to add up the time we've spent tracking down diesel jeans data.
