Hey Everyone,

I am Marco Cabrera. I am a developer who works for CU-Village as part of the Michigan Credit Union League. I am Zend Certified in both PHP4 and PHP5 and have been working on the web for around 10 years. I tend to work on large scale projects that are heavy in PHP (OOP of course), SQL and JavaScript. I look forward to meeting all of you.

I guess a little about me would be a good idea

I'm Bing Pascual, VP and Project Manager at inMotion Group in Troy (Michigan). I started out as a coder in 1998, learning PHP from various books, online tutorials, and trial-and-error. Since then, I've written a number of project specific applications based on PHP ranging from PDF creation of business cards to tightly integrated shopping cart systems.

Today, I primarily handle the sales and project management of our core product, the inClick Ad Server. I dabble in the code every now and again to not fall too far behind.

I decided to host a PHP Meetup to see what information we can collectively share as well as discover area talent. I am hoping that this PHP Meetup will serve as a viable method for us to collectively hear what challenges others have faced or are currently facing in using PHP; be it security, scalability, debugging, development environments, IP protection, etc.

That should cover it for now. You can also view my profile on Linkedin: http://www.linkedin.c...

I look forward to meeting all of you!
