According to this PHP.net update, there is now an easier than ever way to have PHP manual pages installed locally:
$ pear install doc.php.net/pman $ pman date

Every 60 seconds on the Web
We’ve all seen a gadzillion of statistics on how many videos are uploaded to YouTube every day or how many Google searches are performed every month. Â While those are all interesting on their own, combined into a single overview they provide a really good perspective on how active and diverse the Web is.

GoDaddy is being sold to Silver Lake
According to GigaOm:
Go Daddy, the largest domain registrar and a web hosting provider, is reportedly close to being sold to a group of private equity firms including KKR and Silver Lake Partners. The purchase price is about $2 – 2.5 billion, according to several news outlets.
That’s the same Silver Lake that helped so much to screw up Skype. Â If you haven’t yet found an alternative to GoDaddy, you should be looking. Â That reminds me that Automattic has become a domain registrar quite some time ago and I haven’t heard any updates on that.
