To Gwibber or not to Gwibber
Jul 11th
Note: Thanks to segphault (at) gwibber I can revise my whole post and and say that gwibber is my client of choice. Check the comments for his response to find out how to use the client properly.
So as some of you already know I’m a strong advocate of Ubuntu as a desktop environment.
With the release of 10.04 they have now included a new social media client called Gwibber. My first foray into using it was rather unsuccessful but i recent have revised my opinion.
By default its a rather bland and unimaginative to look at but it does handle a large number of social networks as it stands it currently covers

Getting squeakly clean with Zend_Soap
Sep 15th
I recently had to set up a SOAP service for a client. So I thought it was the perfect opportunity to get to grips with the Zend_Soap_Server.
Everything went swimmingly. I agreed on a structure with the customer and following the Zend Framework reference manual i managed to set up the server in no time at all using the auto discover feature.
Now I use a linux environment and tested the service with php_soap, nusoap and Zend_Soap_Client, and it all worked perfectly. it was so easy to use i found myself laughing.
But…. and here is the killer. Its only after I spent two whole days writing and testing the service that I hand it over to the customer and… it doesn’t work.
