I can’t believe it … I finally moved my site off VPS.NET. I’ve hosted my site there for the last 4 years! When tried to upgrade OpenSSL due to the Heartbleed vulnerability, the Ubuntu 10.10 repositories had been deprecated and so I was stuck on a obsolete OS and limited upgrade options.

Migrating my site kept finding it’s way to the bottom of my priorities. I finally bit the bullet today and had a digital ‘spring clean’.

I’m no doubt the only person to notice the improved responsiveness. When I find more time, I still endeavour to migrate off WordPress to a ClojureScript driven site, hosted Github pages with an Elastic Search back end. In the mean time, enjoy the faster page loads :)

Zend have finally posted some information about their new PHP5 certification. This new certification was planned to be released yesterday but has been postponed now until the end of August/early Sept.

There’s a fairly comprehensive list of topics – hopefully it’ll be a more worthwhile qualification than the original! No rushing the study guide this time please guys!
