I decided to rebuild my home page since it was originally done as little more than static pages. Ok, I used a bit of PHP to include headers and footers and do a couple of other litte things, but it was nothing clever.

Since it is trying to promote me as a developer, I thought I should apply a bit more effort than that. It turns out, I failed. I used Zend Framework to rebuild the site, and it just made everything even easier and less effort. From form validation to displaying my twitter feed, I had the lot built in about 4 hours, well, excluding the other 4 hours it took me trying to figure out how to get Zend Framework working with 1and1’s hosting.
