Excitement is building as CIConf 2012 gets closer! This weekend --the 19th and 20th of February-- I am going to be in London, England meeting a bunch of fellow CodeIgniter developers and checking out some great speakers.
If you see me there make sure you say hi! I'm so very lonely.
I was given the opportunity to interview Taylor Otwell about his PHP web development framework Laravel.
We love Laravel (this site was built with it) and we think that you will love it, too.
You can learn more about Laravel at http://laravel.com. There you can find the Laravel forums which are great for checking out information about new releases and asking questions. You can also join the #Laravel IRC channel on irc.freenode.net is full of smart people who can help to answer any questions that you have.
It's been a fun and exciting year for us. We worked with a lot of great people, released our first web app (Picofin.com) and Shawn moved to the Netherlands where he established a Dutch branch for Big.
We've learned a lot about running our own business over these past 12 months and we're looking forward to another year.
Thank you all for supporting us and helping us grow!
