Did you ask Santa for a daily serving of juicy PHP-related articles all wrapped up in a festive wrapping and served before Christmas? If so, he answered your request in the form of PHP Advent.

From my blog:

Ok, this is a little late since today's the 17th (and very nearly the 18th for me) but there’s a lovely series of articles, or "doses of widsom", covering a range of topics including the PHP community, web services, documentation, frameworks, JSON, MySQL and the development of PHP being offered up in the form of PHP Advent. In their own words:

Christmas is nigh, and the PHP Advent Calendar rides again! In line with tradition, we’ve swapped the chocolates for doses of wisdom from people in the PHP community who’ve kindly donated their thoughts and tips to see us through the coming year. Enjoy!

I’ll be keeping an eye out for the remaining doses of wisdom over the coming days and invite you to do so as well! Once again, it’s phpadvent.org (bookmark it, Google Reader it, or just remember to visit it daily). Happy holidays to all.

Seasons greetings fellow TalkPHPers.
