I had some free time today, so I decided to start on a proof-of-concept for my OpenID + Microformats idea. Holy $^#@ am I rusty with PHP. It’s now been about a year since I last done any sort of programming with it and I find myself having to reference the books I was reading when I first began learning PHP 2 years ago. I really need to start fitting time into my schedule for working on programming projects because I’m finding myself having to look up information that has been lost over time.
On another note, I REALLY need to sit down and learn regular expressions. I’m tired of having to google search this sort of thing. I heard O’Reilly’s book on Regular Expressions is a good resource; perhaps I should pick it up. I’m going to have to learn them anyways, the sooner the better I suppose.
Afterthought: Perhaps instead of re-learning everything, I should just learn the PEAR library instead and fill in the gaps along the way. Anyways, I guess I know what books I’ll be ordering soon.
