Stumbled across 3 things this week that have me excited:

I’ve been looking for a quality, light-weight PHP framework for a while now, and Code Igniter seems to be exactly what I’m looking for. I’ve known about CakePHP, but never bothered with it… seemed to be bloated with a bunch of crap that I’m not interested in. A bonus is that tests indicate that Code Igniter is faster than CakePHP.

With regards to the other two (the Facebook API and Yahoo! Pipes), it’s just plain exciting to see companies releasing fun, geeky tools and making their APIs publically accessible.

    Hey Rory, Code Igniter is scary-fast. You’ll love it, but most of all you’ll love the simplicity and the community. Check out the forums and you’ll be amazed :)

    Hey Rors, a friend and I want to do something interesting using the Facebook API. I’ll chat with you about it at work. What’s your MSN, man?
