Linux on your iPhone

,----[ Quote ]
| As an April Fool's joke, I created a fake 
| Linux app for the iPhone that made it look 
| like Linux was running on your phone. It 
| doesn't actually do anything - when you 
| type text, it just spits out one of 
| several pre-determined responses, but 
| there are various geeky in-jokes for 
| people in the know. The idea was that 
| you'd buy it knowing it was fake (it was 
| made very clear in the app description), 
| then show it to your Linuxy friends, say 
| "hey, I installed Linux on my iPhone!" and 
| see how long it took for them to figure 
| out it was a joke.
| 
| Sadly, Apple rejected the app for various 
| reasons.

Elevate Your PHP Development with PHP 5.3's Powerful New Features

,----[ Quote ]
| By typical development conventions, PHP 
| 5.3 only qualifies as a "point release." 
| However, the features packed into this new 
| version are easily the most significant 
| PHP development enhancements since PHP 5.0 
| was released in 2004. The powerful new PHP 
| 5.3 features include namespace support, 
| lambda functions and closures, late static 
| binding, improved Windows support, and a 
| host of syntactical additions. This 
| article provides all the information you 
| need to begin taking advantage of these 
| PHP 5.3 goodies.
