I’m always interested when Inc. puts out its list of the top young entrepreneurs and does a mini study on each.  People who are entrepreneurs themselves or are wanting to become one can learn a lot by just copying those who are already doing it.

Looks like the list this year is made up of lots of groups of youngies, strength in numbers I guess.

Check out the full list and a couple of articles about the new trends at: http://www.inc.com/30under30/2009/index.html

http://www.inc.com/30under30/2009/index.html – For you young hillbillies out there that get inspired by other young rascals doing well before they lose all their teeth, check out Inc.’s annual Top 30 Entrepreneurs Under 30 and get inspired, jealous, aroused, or whatever else you feel like!

I thought, no problem, I had just added a basic commenting system to Redefine’s articles and it took no time at all. Then I dove into VCalendar’s code and saw it was a computer nerd’s wet dream. In the index.php file there wasn’t a couple of function calls to print out the calendar, no there were hundreds. Each section of the calendar has its own class, initialization, parser, show, etc, etc, etc functions that are never ending. After studying the code for 3 hours I’m about able to start making changes.

Holy shit, if you want to use a PHP script that you’ll want to change, never choose software that’s available in multiple programming languages. PHP is great for a reason, it’s easy to hack and customize, but that all goes out the window when someone decides to write PHP using C++ style!
