In Frankfurt!

Hmm, I’ve been in Frankfurt now a day and a bit, and I’m even awake at the right times. Pretty good!

Most interesting quote from the flight:
Flight attendant (after pouring a cup of coffee for someone sitting next to me):
“Yes it’s coffee.”

The combined PHP and MySQL conference here rocks… interesting people with interesting stories and good questions.
I did my tutorial yesterday on optimisation – done that one in Australia and Holland as well, so I get to compare a bit between the different audiences… this was definitely the largest crowd so far, I estimate over a 100 people. Extra chairs, and still people were standing or sitting on the floor in the back! For 2×1.5 hrs – wow.

Indu Britto of the PHP Magazine tells me there’s a blog site for the conference at http://www.php-mag.net/weblogs/ipm_phpconf_04/.
Hey, I’m on there – cool! http://www.php-mag.net/weblogs/ipm_phpconf_04/archives/2-Optimizing-MySQL-with-Arjen-Lentz.html
