Web developers are normal people. Do you agree? Most probably if
you are reading this article I am talking about you. So look in the
mirror.are you normal? If you are a developer you would know about, or at
least have heard about PHP. PHP is now being used by hundreds of thousands
of developers, and it's installed on several million sites across the
Internet. We're talking over 20% of the domains on the Internet people!
So, how do you think technology like this was created then? Do you think
it was built by a team in the massive building of a large company?
Wrong.You are completely wrong. It was made by a single person (he
happened to come from Canada if you feel that is relevant) who was just
trying to make a simple set of Perl scripts that would see how much
traffic was going to his online resume. Can you believe it? This is how
technology evolves my friends. Normal people like you have tasks they need
to complete and using a little bit of ingenuity, new ways of doing things
are born. These small new ideas then help humanity to go forward as a
whole species.in this case because now it is much easier to create a
website on the Internet.
Having a language like PHP means that you can use a large number of
databases, run it on all of the most popular web servers, and can
use it with many different operating systems. This flexibility means that PHP has
a wide installation base across the Internet. Can you believe that it all
started with one single person like you who had a problem and worked to
find a solution? PHP acts as a filter which takes a file containing text
and converts it to another form, which is mainly used to hand web servers
a file consisting only of html. This lowers the barrier to entry on the
Internet, giving more people an opportunity to join in this unbelievable
human phenomenon. So do you know how the PHP story goes next?
Like many of the coolest technologies throughout the history of the world,
other people came along and further evolved the original idea.
Take a look at the Model T Ford, then a Formula 1 Ferrari racing car. What happened?
The greatness of people is what happened, and it's the same with PHP. Two
guys came along (they happened to come from Israel if you feel that is
relevant) and they took this infant technology to the next level. You see,
the first guy (he was named Rasmus if you care about such things) was nice
enough to make the decision to release the source code for PHP for
everybody to see, so that anybody could use it. This means that other
people could fix bugs in it and improve the code. In essence, he employed
the rest of humanity for the job of furthering his ideas. Smart guy.It's
called 'Open-source, right? What a cool way to give evolution a kick in
the butt!
These two super-heroes.I mean normal people (I'm getting carried away aren't
I?) worked for a huge company and were paid millions of dollars to work on
PHP. No, not really. Again, they were just like you and me. Gutmans and
Suraski (sounds like those guys you play basketball with on Sundays, doesn't
it?) were just trying to develop an eCommerce application they were
working on for a University project. They found that the first PHP didn't
have enough power and so they did a complete rewrite. Bingo! This was the
first sign of the language that we now use today.
Normal human beings like you (Are developers and programmers normal?) are
the ones who have changed the world over time for the better. Whether it's
the technology that has made it easier for people to build websites on the
Internet giving them a place to express their ideas or share their
services, or the people who are making those really cool sites, it wasn't
only geniuses and whiz-kids that have helped human society to evolve.
Anyone with one small idea is all that's needed to start a ripple-effect
throughout the world, to start a revolution in the way things are seen and
done in the world today.
If you use PHP to develop websites, you've got to know that you've got
something of great significance at your fingertips. You've got
human progress. You've got an Internet that is now more accessible for people to
become part of. You've got a language that was created by the people for
the people. My question to you is not, 'Are you going to develop a website
that changes the world?' My only question is, 'When are you going to get
started?'
