Cheers people!

Please write a few short lines about yourself, tell us what you do, where you work, how you spend your weekends...

I like to call myself jack-of-all-trades in the web industry. As a web developer I code a lot, and as PHP instructor I teach others to code also. When I manage to squeeze out some free time I usually end up playing softball or paragliding. Currently, not that much, because of awful cold weather we have in Zagreb, Croatia. Can't wait for spring to come ;-)

Greetings all!

I'm a Web designer/developer/consultant with my own little company in Denver, CO. Gravitating more toward development and less toward design at this point. My specialty is custom themes for WordPress. I've done quite a bit with PHP, but nothing relating to OOP so far, so I'm looking forward to broadening my perspective with this class.

In my free time I enjoy playing guitar and going hiking.

Hi everyone,

I am from Nepal. I am a Web developer by profession. Though i code mostly in PHP at work i do have interest in other programming languages. I am also learning Python in my free time.
I hope to learn more about OOP from this class and meet great people :)

I think Matt and i share similar kind of hobbies. I like to go trekking and hiking. I'm not good at playing guitar but i can make some sound with my old guitar :) I also love watching football and cricket.

Hi everyone!

I'm a freelance web-developer from the UK. I do a bit of everything, but have recently started doing more PHP and CMS-type development on Drupal. Hence I'm looking to improve my PHP beyond procedural!

In my spare time I cycle, listen to a lot of music, and generally geek out about things.

Hello,

In my spare time I like to do photography and listen to music, especially noisy rock and jazz.
