This one is a bit longer than the other interviews in this series but if you know Ed, that doesn’t surprise you. Ed has been a player in the PHP community for as long as I’ve known him. First with Inspect and then with the award winning twitter client Spaz. (Which isn’t really PHP but a lot of PHP people use it because it is a good program) Ed is a wicked smart programmer and works with Eli White and Jeff Jones over at HiiDef. Listen as Ed talks about his tutorial, “JavaScript for PHP Developers” and his session, “Put down the Superglobals! Secure PHP Development with Inspekt“.
