I had to hack up some PHP so that this blog at https://projectredstripe.com/blog could be browsed to via the domain name (i.e. without the directory). Not too hard in the end, but (as you may know) I’m no PHP guru, so how did I do it?

Well, Tim O’Reilly, who spoke at the AOP conference last week, could tell you (if you had the chance to ask him). He talked about the way that his company did not have the competitors one might have expected if you’d have looked into the future a few years back.

So who’s his competition?

Google.

And that’s how I learned enough PHP to put in a redirect to a directory. You can view Tim’s keynote (courtesy of Savvis) in full here.
