Some news on my activities

This week has been very satisfactorily so far.

First, my talk for phpDay, the most important yearly Italian conference on php, has been accepted. The talk will be in Italian and it takes place on the last day of the conference, May 15th. The title is Architettura e testabilità.
Here is the abstract [Italian]:

Il design di un'applicazione può essere influenzato positivamente da diverse pratiche. La facilità di testing é condizione sufficiente per un architettura che garantisca semplice manutenzione e alta coesione dei componenti.
Argomenti trattati: Dependency Injection, Law of Demeter, Design Pattern creazionali (Factory vs. Singleton), Api oneste.

The tickets have now low prices as this is the early bird period.

Meanwhile, I've started writing for php|architect on phparch.com; php|architect is one of the most prominent producer of php-related books and training courses.
My first post in their news section is about Zend Framework 2 roadmap.

Packing for Florence

Tomorrow I am leaving for Florence, in the occasion of New Year's Eve. I will be back in 2010 (just a few days :) and I'll return to post regularly on the week of January 4.
Happy partying!

Going on vacation

I am going on vacation tomorrow in Romagna, so I will not update Invisible to the eye until August 20.
Stay tuned and subscribe to the feed if you want to be informed of new articles as soon as I return and publish new posts.
I hope you enjoy these holydays!

Beppe Grillo's candidature

Note: this short post is written in Italian and in English to benefit citinzens of Italy also.

Beppe Grillo, a comedian, has announced its candidature for the position of Segretario del Partito Democratico; the elections which are taking place are the Italian equivalent of the Obama/Hillary Clinton primaries.
My thought: well, we should vote for someone that believes that phones cook eggs and plastic balls wash clothes.

Nota: questo post è scritto in italiano ed inglese per beneficiare anche i cittadini italiani.

Beppe Grillo, un comico, ha annunciato la sua candidatura per la posizione di Segretario del Partito Democratico; le elezioni che avverranno sono l'equivalente italiano delle primarie fra Obama e Hillary Clinton.
Il mio pensiero: ma certo, dovremmo votare per uno che crede che i cellulari cuociano le uova e le palle di plastica lavino i vestiti.
