Someone made the mistake this week by dropping off an old Dell PC they had lying around the house, and asking if I had any use for it before it went to the scrap heap.

I foolishly said yes thinking to myself that I could do with setting up a local server to run my sites on before uploading.

Well not the best of starts I wanted for this blog. I was hoping to at least do one video per month but with being just so busy I have not been able to.

Great to see some new people on CI’s IRC channell and again another great reason for using CI with its memebrs having such a great community. If you have not been on to IRC yet you can connect with these details.

Well I am going to post some bits over this comming week so look forward to speaking then.

I have just recorded my first Screen Cast for the site and it is basically a very simple cast on how to setup CodeIgniter with Smarty.

This screen cast will hopefully be followed shortly by a set for the CodeIgniter framework. For me CI is just a fantastic framework with such a great community. So I decided to give a little back and do a set of basic tutorials which will hopefully help more newcomers to the CI framework.

Well this is my first time in creating a blog site.

I just thought after 5 years I should start to give a bit back to the community.

So stay tuned for some videos and more.

Have a great day.
