Save the date: on February 26th the PHP UK Conference 2010 is happening in London and we will be there with bells on, armed with Flips, iPhones and all.
WebsiteSpark (Microsoft) and PayPal are platinum sponsors, and Facebook is the social sponsor, with Bytemark, ibuildings, data.gov.uk, GroupSpaces, O’Reilly and Packt Publishing all sponsoring too.
In 2008 one delegate brought along a heard of really cute elePHPants to give away at the event – I hope I can get one this year.
Follow @phpukconference and see the event website for more info, and use this link to register with a £20 discount! Social events take place the night before and night after.
