Mark Henderson
Mark Robert Henderson has been understanding, developing, modifying, and deploying PHP applications since 2006, and while he has been through several love affairs with different technologies over the years, he tries to remain as unopinionated as possible about specific technologies, mostly to avoid arguments with other developers.
However, sometimes a technology comes along that just makes an engineer smile at its simplicity and elegance. CakePHP is one of those, and Mark is happy to share some of the cool things that he's learned in the course of creating applications with it.
