Upcoming Zend Webinars

Every week, my good friend Nili arranges a free Webinar for anyone who wants to learn more about PHP. These webinars are always interesting and if they didn’t keep me so busy attending conferences (or planning them) I’d be at more of them.

Desktop Image Uploaders Using Adobe AIR and JavaScript

What makes the web fun? Is it the cool applications like Google Maps, which are neat but not particularly fun? Is it social networks like Facebook? Sure, that’s a little fun.
