    Sexy geek

    Plenty of people think they know what a geek is but most don’t realize that there is more than one type of geek. Geeks are as diverse as those around them. For instance, there are geeks who can build computers and code in different languages as if it is no problem at all. Some geeks are actually up to speed with current fashions and trends and some spend their time cosplaying. There are those geeks who are loyal to their favorite brands, such as Apple. Some are devoted to their favorite fandoms, from Star Wars to Star Trek. Some geeks can tell somebody every little fact about their favorite celebrities, films or sports teams. (more…)

  • How to Avoid Bad Links to Your Site

    How to Avoid Bad Links to Your Site

    As you most likely have heard, the Penguin update was all about the links that point to your site from others (some of them may be bad links). The problem is you can’t really control all your links (the ones that you got in a natural way), but you need to do whatever possible to tweak the links you have control over. The interesting – and obvious for that matter – thing is that you need to keep an eye not only on the sites that you get links from, but you also should  monitor the percentage of your anchor text exact match keywords, because this factor can drastically influence your keyword rankings. And that’s exactly what I’ll start from.

  • Conditional Operators – Learning PHP for absolute beginners

    Road signsThe power of any programming language is all about making decisions based on user selection. Conditional operators (conditional statements) execute code only when certain condition is met. If the expressions inside the parentheses () evaluate to true, the code between braces {} is executed. If it is false, then the code between braces is skipped. It’s worth mentioning that the code which follows the closing brace } is executed in any case, ‘coz it’s not part of the conditional statement. Since the same principle is used throughout all programming languages, you can learn it in the PHP context and the apply the same skils, say, in JavaScript. Ain’t it cool? (more…)

    If you’ve ever performed a job for a web design client, you may have run into one guy that just made you want to pull your hair out due to the frustration he caused you in the process of communicating how to design his picture perfect business website.

  • PHP for Beginners: Operators and Expressions

    Gears - image by Alvaro Heinzen

    This time around we’ll tackle one more rather interesting and really crucial notion in PHP and for that matter in any other programming language. PHP operators allow you to perform different operations with numeric variables. It is necessary to specify two operands and the appropriate symbol of mathematical operation. For example, the operation of addition (+) can be performed as follows: $x + $y. An operator is a symbol that manipulates 2 or more values.We can group PHP operators into ten types: arithmatic operators, assignment operators, comparison operations, incrementing/decrementing operators, and logical operators. Do you feel like making new friends today? 🙂 Let’s meet the first group.
