I sent in a support ticket to php|arch a short while ago inquiring about something related to my purchases, and was expecting someone from sales to get back to me, instead it seems that anything regarding the specific question I had is sent to the person in charge of the training, unnecessarily so in my opinion, but still... Regardless, I got an email back from the trainer, Paul Reinheimer (aka, the really cool PHP guy), telling me how he's currently at php|tek, apologized for the slow response (due to the php|tek conference, sponsored by php|architect, and php|arch being pretty low on in-office staffers)...he also said I should be there.

I somewhat agree, even if I did have presentations and meetings of my own to attend which were pretty important. Alas, I'm now jealous. There are always blogs buzzing over how great the conference was by other PHP developers once it's over. Dancing, eating, prizes, drinking, socializing, networking, brainstorming, and all around geekiness (save the best for last). The trials and tribulations of being "broke" and just starting out in a professional career. Oh well, I do what I love, and love what I do, so I'm still rich. I can at least read about all the cool stuff going on! :D
