1. Access PHP, MySQL, jQuery, and Drupal documentation offline on your Mac with Dash May 2012

   Wouldn't it be great if there was an easy way to access php.net or other documentation offline or on a plane?

   UPDATE: Sadly, as this blog post went to press, two important updates came out that change the usefulness of this blog post. Dash is now ad-supported, and secondly, it ships with a Drupal DocSet available for download, so that's one fewer step you have to perform to have all the docs that matter to you in Dash.

2. Drush phpsh Integration Demonstration November 2011

   I gave a 5-minute lightning presentation at the October 2011 Drupal NYC meetup about Roger Lopéz's phpsh plugin for drush.

   phpsh is a project by Facebook that provides a much more useful REPL (read-eval-print-loop) environment for PHP, similar to Ruby or Scala. The Drush phpsh plugin adds an easy way to generate ctags for code completion in your phpsh (as well as your favorite editor) and a way to run a persistent PHP session with a fully bootstrapped Drupal instance. It's really useful for testing out APIs.

   If you missed it in person, you can watch the video embedded below.
