Areeb’s Online Realm

This blog was initially hosted on Google’s Blogger, but due to some reasons which I need not discuss, I wanted to move my Blog to my own site. I had been searching for a good software which can provide me good designs, diversity in options and security. Although I used Microblog for some days, but still I was not satisfied.

Than I came across Wordpress. I was simply amazed to see the wide variety of features, themes and plugins which are offered in Wordpress. It is also Open-Source and well-known for its 5-minute install. It seemed to be an Ideal software for any blogger who has PHP and MySQL support on their server. There are many many other reasons why I chose Wordpress but I cannot write them all. You can simply Google it up.

Since I basically like to work on PHP & MySQL Based systems, so here is a breif introduction to what these two things are :

PHP

PHP is a server-side scripting language for creating dynamic Web pages. PHP’s programming syntax is very similar to that of Perl. Because of its elegant design, PHP makes it easy for anyone to learn. It is significantly easier than comparable Perl or ASP Code. Unlike other scripting languages, PHP supports the most common databases like Oracle, Sybase and MySQL. It is also possible to integrate external libraries to generate PDF documents or parsing XML PHP is an open-source language and is supported by a large groups of delvelopers. The code is downloadable from php.net.

MySQL

MySQL is a relational database management system. It is a Open Source SQL database provided by MySQL AB. MySQL is very fast, reliable, and easy to use. It also has a very practical set of features developed in very close cooperation with our users. MySQL was originally developed to handle very large databases much faster than existing solutions and has been successfully used in highly demanding production environments for several years. Though under constant development, MySQL today offers a rich and very useful set of functions. The connectivity, speed, and security make MySQL highly suited for accessing databases on the Internet.
