We&#8217;ve known for a long time that ExpressionEngine is built on top of CodeIgniter. But why is this important, and does it actually make any difference? Do we care? Should we care?
Well, at it&#8217;s current 1.6.x version I&#8217;ve never been that interested in ExpressionEngine if I&#8217;m totally honest. I&#8217;ve looked through the codebase, and after [...]

		<description><![CDATA[A few weeks ago, I mentioned that I was thinking about producing some '<a href="http://www.haughin.com/2009/05/09/coming-soon-hd-quality-codeigniter-screencasts/">High Quality CodeIgniter Screencasts</a>'. I was a little torn about putting a price on these screencasts, and selling them as a way to to <a href="http://notbythehour.com/" target="_blank">boost my passive income</a>. But the feedback from you, my loyal <a href="http://www.haughin.com/feed">readers</a> and <a href="http://twitter.com/elliothaughin">followers</a> was great, and you all seemed to encourage me to produce them.

		<description><![CDATA[I asked all of <a href="http://twitter.com/elliothaughin">my followers on twitter</a> what they would like released this weekend, and the result was clear: <a href="http://developers.facebook.com/connect.php">Facebook Connect</a>.

<img src="http://www.haughin.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/connect_light_large_long.gif" alt="connect_light_large_long" title="connect_light_large_long" width="194" height="25" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-642" />

I've been playing around with Facebook Connect for quite some time, and naturally, decided to use CodeIgniter to do so. And since this is me, I figured that most people in the UK are fed up of MP's taking so much from them this week, so here's me 'giving' you something back!

		<description><![CDATA[For a few years now, I've had <a href="/screencasts/">CodeIgniter Screencasts</a> on my site. This page, along with the <a href="/code/">Code</a> page of my site have been the most popular pages by far.

Thousands of people download my screencasts every month, and despite some major problems with audio quality, resolution, and audio/video sync, they remain extremely popular.

For this reason, I've decided that it's time to build a passive income stream into my freelancing career, and produce some very high quality <a href="/screencasts/">CodeIgniter Screencasts</a> along with reference materials, and release them for a small fee ($5 or less).

		<description><![CDATA[Hey guys, this isn't exactly a normal blog post, I just wanted to encourage you to get in touch with your local newspapers, and try to drive up some publicity for yourself.

My local newspaper is the '<a href="http://www.nwemail.co.uk">North West Evening Mail</a>', a few weeks ago I was chatting with Nick, someone who works for the company that owns my local newspaper. He was in charge of digital content, and was quite interested to do a feature on me.

Local publicity is always good to have, it gets your name out there, and if you're pitching for freelance work locally, it can make a big difference. So, here's something for you to do this week: get in touch with your local newspaper, and have a chat to them about what you do and why it's interesting. Who knows, you might get some free publicity!

Check out the article:

These tips also translate well to interviews; so if you're job-hunting right now, bear these in mind.
