[...] Another benefit of frameworks is that they enforce well established design patterns, which flows well with web designers and developers who appreciate clean and elegant code. Your customers, however, don’t really care what your code looks like. They want a web-based application that is responsive and reliable. There are times when we have to break the rules to make this happen. As a project manager, it is not fun having to twist a developers arm to get them to write faster, uglier code. But a project manager is also an advocate for the customer’s user experience. Web designers and developers need to understand the relationship between their work, customer satisfaction, and ultimately, company revenue.

Obioria, Thanks for commenting. Yes, the Pelago blog is very tech-oriented and heavy on details. Perhaps you were looking for our Intervals blog? It is geared more towards our online time, task and project management software and its various attributes, such as the API. Check it out at: http://www.myintervals.com/blog/ Meanwhile, to address your question about performance. Intervals runs pretty lean considering the comprehensiveness of its feature set. We are continually monitoring, tweaking and tuning the server and software to optimize performance. In fact, each Intervals release includes code to make the application run a little faster.

Reviewing your blog, most of the tech speak is pretty heavyweight;

PHP crons, linux, and the hostname
Face detection in pure PHP (towards: web trends presence, communities and analytics?)
Configuring Sonic Wall Routers
consumer application of VPN connections?

- I guess towards more discussion of your API for administration / customisation of intervals?

- I’d be interested to see how this all integrates with your hosting requirements / how flow of TRAFFIC impacts on server loads – end performance concerns to the client etc.
