mysql

making progress on a mySQL backend for this site. my first forrays into the world of mySQL a few years back never amounted to much, more for a lack of project than anything else. now i have something to use it with it all starts making sense. i already feel comfortable with the basics. also managed to install it on the iBook without too much hassle.

Backroom Boys the book the article is taken from also looks very interesting, "The Secret Return of the British Boffin".
